Lil, 5 minutes on the elliptical is better than 5 minutes on the couch You will be amazed to watch your stamina increase.

Thanks IAKG! I'm going to order one tonight. I think I'm going to go with the more pricey regular sized one though to be safe. I know my wrists are getting smaller but I think my wrist is closer to 7" if not slightly over.

SS, I'm glad you enjoyed your dinner out and are finding ways to modify what you are eating on a budget. Also, a loss is a loss no matter what it was you were losing - and it's a great jumpstart motivator.

As for me, I only did 20 minutes on the treadmill tonight but it was a hard 20 minutes. I need to build my endurance back up.
