My son who just turned 13 now goes to the gym with us. My husband helps him with the machines, but he loves the treadmill. He did not have gym this year in school and he missed it.

hello, welcome to the site. Everyone here is very nice and will help you when they can.

Finally, after being stuck at losing 8 pounds for 3 weeks, I got up today and weighed and I have lost 3 pounds for a grand total of 11 pounds:love:

I don't get to workout until the evening and then I'm not sure what days, so it's hard for me to plan what to eat all day. I don't want to eat too much and then not get to work out and not have enough calories for dinner. Yesterday I…

EXCELLENT JOB:flowerforyou:

Im in Southern NH it's been very snowy, but every couple of weeks we get a 40 degree day or two to melt it. So I feel for you. I don't want the snow that is coming tonight either. I'm tired of it. Good luck and stay nice and warm:flowerforyou:

Sorry to hear about your Uncle. It's always hard to lose someone you are close to. The gym might be what you need to let off steam.:flowerforyou:
