I'm finally going to take up the weight battle again. I was reading an article about the Gastric Bypass and how to determine if you're eligible, well let's say I fit the criteria(when I thought I would fall short) so I know I need to do something now. I bought a Bowflew recently and haven't even put it together. Anyone used the Bowflex out there? Did it help you? I used to be in better than average shape a couple years ago. I was still in high school and was proud of my accmplishments in the weight room. I used to bench 370, squat 450+ and leg press over 800. I graduated but stayed active with open gym hoops and such. I found out my girlfriend was pregnant and it fell apart from there. I went from 260 lbs to 315 in the time it took for our son to bve born. We ate out every night and stopped being active. She gained 120 lbs. I have stopped gaining weight but my body is a mess. I'm not huge but too fat for my liking. We were going to the gym but I got discouraged because I was winded quickly and my legs were out of shape. It was also hard for me to get back in the weight room and see that I had wasted all of my hard work. I have a new found sense f urgency to get healthy and just wanted people's opinions in the best way to get started again. I almost filled out an application to go on the Biggest Loser for cripes sakes. Thanks.
Suggestions, please?
