I did it. I finally joined the gym at my job. Can't figure out why this make me giddy :wub: , but it does.

I am truly looking forward to starting a program and sticking with it. The center is staffed from 6:30a - 7:30p but members access it 24/7. I'm ready now, it's on!!! I see ONE(derland) coming soon. Ok, why am I THIS EXCITED!! Is it the sleeve? Alright, I'll take that.

Now, can I get some advice on what I should be doing before / after workouts? What to wear...yes this is a serious question on my part because I don't know if I should wear something special because of being Sleeved.

Thank you my fellow Sleevers.

I am so happy that you are so happy! :-) I am looking forward to being where you are in a very short time!

Congratulations! One step closer to healthy! I don't wear anything special except a girdle. I'm just 5 weeks out and still have incision pain and that helps. I usually wear basketball shorts (I may be addicted to Nike) and a loose tshirt. Good shoes are a must. I wear asics now but also love Nike and Addidas runners. Nike shoes can be linked to your ipod to track your progress. That will be my next pair. It will be my reward for hitting 250. Only 16 lbs to go!

I too am a Nike fan - always have been. I said when I see 'Onederland' (haven't seen her in decades ) I was rewarding myself the those Nikes to link to my ipod.

I have a pair of run/walk (waffle design on sole) nikes now, so that will have to do for now. Heck I barely took them out of box.

Thanks for the info.

Those should be great! I can't wait to get the hot pink and black pair I have been eyeing for a year lol! Now I may actually be able to find a pair to fit since me feet have shrunk a bit!
