Recommended Posts

I am being banded on May 31st, in Mexico. In preparation, I am converting a storage shed I have to a personal home gym. Since I am limited on space, I am having to decided which 2 pieces of equipment I want to put in my room...I have a friend who is wanting to sell her bowflex, and I am pretty sure that i am going to place it in my little room for sure...I have enough room that I can either put a treadmill in there or a stationary bike, but not both. What would you do? Maybe there is something else I should be considering? Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I guess that depends on what you think you will actually use. Personally, I would get the treadmill because it's versatile--you can walk on it, run, do intervals. And the treadmill keeps you going at the pace you punch in--you can't gradually slow down as you get tired like you can on a bike or elliptical.

But some people hate treadmills. And if you think you'd actually USE the bike more than the treadmill, that's what I'd get.

How cool that you are going to have your own home gym! That is awesome. Between your cardio machine and the bowflex, you should be set for a while!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
