Hi Tony: I am a 68 year old widow who has struggled from my teenage years, until recently with a huge weight problem. After years of yo-yo dieting, diet pills and fad diets, I gave up. For years I just faced the world with a big smile while I was dying on the inside. One day I saw Tony on TSC with the Gazelle and saw the results that others like myself had achieved with what appeared to be a very safe piece of equipment that could be enjoyed at any age and ability, so I got on the band wagon and purchased the Gazelle. The rest is history as my photos show. I started very gently and because I was in such poor physical condition, I could only manage 5 minutes at the start. Before I knew it I had progressed up to 10, then 15 and by gosh in no time I could do 20 minutes without a problem. The inches and pounds started melting away and my stamina and cardio were improving by the week. I now have a wonderful man in my life. I am on the Gazelle at least 5 times a week, for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. My, how life can change. I now have the ability to walk for miles (couldn’t do that before) and have plenty of energy to get through a very busy day feeling proud and satisfied with my life. People that haven’t seen me for a long time don’t even recognize me. I look at least 15 years younger now. I have pride in myself and BELIEVE in myself as I have ACHIEVED with Tony’s help, a healthy new beginning to my life. Thank you Tony for helping this butterfly burst out of her cocoon. Respectfully, Barbara -- Canada
