I applaud the effort. The elip is a great machine that I firmly believe in especially if you are drastically overweight or nursing injuries. Virtually no impact and it can really get you're heart rate up where you need it.

you should look into becoming a personal trainer...your passion for excesize is really great!
I have had trainers before and it really made a difference how much further I would push myself.
The iron issues has been ongoing, even prior to GBS, but got really bad after. I am starting to get IV infusions and I think its going to work. Been through the supplementation and even whole blood transfusion.
Trying to optomistic but it does bum out my work out routine.
Glad your doing so well...lucky guy!!
