I live in suburban Milwaukee. I have had six surgeries, since an accident 12 years ago. Trying desperately to get back into shape. Previously, was A gym rat, and loved it. Did cardio an hour a day and lift at free weights 45 minutes a day. Current health allows me nothing but walking. This app is a godsend. Anyone interested in motivational podcast: check out the weight loss podcast.com. I get it on Overcast app. It is a couple from Melbourne Australia who own a gym and lost a bunch of weight together. They have great topics and great discussion. You can also email them questions. They really cover everything and are funny. Good luck to all. My goal: one year from now, be down to my ideal weight of 150 pounds. Don't know if that will be possible not being able to lift weights. Best of luck to all.

    Hey I totally understand. After triple bypass my exercise went way downhill. I'm also in suburbs, Oak Creek to be exact. Haven't been to Planet Fitness in about 5 months. I feel so frustrated mostly remembering what I was once able to do so easily. Keep going and good luck with your goal.
