Well, I thought I was in pretty good shape since I walk my dog daily at a moderate pace but, I just bought an elliptical exerciser and it kicked my butt.  Wow, who knew how out of shape I really am. But I am determined to start slow and work my way up to 30 minutes a day. Hopefully, the butt that got kicked today will be considerably smaller in the near future.

The first time on an elliptical is a memorable moment---I lasted maybe three minutes, no, two minutes.

The elliptical is a whole other kind of beast.

The first time I did one, I had been walking a great pace for an hour on the treadmill, so I figured I could whip out 30+ mins with no issues, I did not last 5 mins.

So I did not want to do it again.  I felt like a failure, then someone suggested not to plan to do 30 mins, but to get used to it and just plan 2-3 mins.  Then build up, before long I was doing an hour.

Just keep at it and your body will get more accustomed to it.

Great job on the perseverance.

Thanks for all your encouraging words. I will keep at it even if it is only 5 minutes a day to start out.
