wisegrl....oh, ya know I was gonna join Curves, but I had to make an appointment to go in to look at the place...It felt weird..like why couldn't I just go in whenever I wanted and look at the machines. It made me think that I would have to have an appointment time to go do the workouts too!!! SOOOO....I bought a bowflex instead!!! I think you are really going to enjoy it!!! I really do.

I think once I get my routine going I will like it. It is just right now my routine is disturbed because I am learning and not really working out, so my hubby suggested I work out on my treadmill for about 20 minutes and then devote 20 more minutes to watching the video and learning the exercises. I guess it is more important that you learn the exercises the correct way and take your time than it does to just jump in it. I guess I am just anxious. I think the bowflex will actually be a better workout than Curves. Yeah, when you first check Curves out they do make you make an appointment. I didn't like that either.

Deanna,

I looked up your Revolution and it looks SWEET. I didn't see that one. Now I kind of wish I would of bought that one. It looks like it is easier to use.

It is a nice machine. I got it mainly because it had the leg press on it. I hate doing squats and lunges....HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT!!!! It is nice but big but I have the room in my basement. It is very very quiet too!!! I am just glad that I have something that I can do here at home, instead of having to go out and do it!!

I have a treadclimber. Right now it is just gathering dust. If I had it to do over again I would buy an eliptical. I will use it again when I have the energy and my feet and knees don't hurt so bad...maybe 20lbs from now.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
