Thanks Mike. I have also been asked by an instructor and Chief to speak up for annual testing. We can change our diet and exercise, but we cannot change what our family gives us.

Thom Mc,

Follow your Doctor's PT advise & remember to listen to your body, it will let you know if you're over doing it. Set realistic goals and once you reach them raise the bar. Don't give up & always remember that you can get back in shape enough to out work the rookie. Just remember, he'll be ready to go again in 10 to 15 minutes & we may have to recover for 1 to 2 hours.

Best Wishes & welcome to a new fit you.

I plan on making a good comeback. The breathing is the part that becomes the bear, especially when I have to cough. Thanks Mike

Thom MC, the best thing you can do right now is walk, watch your food intake & walk somemore. Don't give up you can make a comeback.
Best regards,

Alright so this may seem a little off topic but what about while at college. Right now I am attending a university and I try to eat right as best as I can but I can only do so much since the food is through the cafeteria. And I try to go out and exercise but most of the time I am studying, in class or doing homework. Does anyone have any suggestions like exercises for in the room or similar to that since my time is limited? Thank you
