I lasted 15 minutes on the elliptical. I know doesn't sound like much but 2 weeks ago I could only last 6 minutes.

    Great job! Its about taking steps. When I started my journey I could barely walk 15 min at 2.0 on the treadmill. Now I can walk well over an hour and between a 3 and a 3.5. Keep it up!!! You will succeed.

    First time I got on it I went 6 minutes and about died.
    1 1/2 years later and 136 pound later I do 45 minutes with hills, no problem.

    Keep it up, I feel so great when I get off that thing. Some days I don't want to get on it, but I'm always glad I did!

    GOOD FOR YOU!

    That's wonderful!! I remember when I couldn't do but about 5 minutes before I was ready to die!!! Just keep working at it...and don't let the machine beat you!! You will be kicking it in no time!! I still only like to do 20 minutes before I want to move on to something else!!!!

    Good job! It takes time to build up and an elliptical can kick your butt.

    I started at 5 minutes and worked myself up to 48 minutes in about 3 weeks. It is such a "proud of yourself" moment to know that you have actually accomplished that. GREAT JOB!!
