Well, I did ask my doctor if it was ok to exercise, but I didn't give him any specifics on what I was planning to do (I don't think that I knew at the time what I was going to do). I have a heart murmur and I wanted to make sure that it was ok. He said that it would be no problem, that it would actually help my condition.

I voted no but I'm on the fence. My doctor gave me the go-ahead to lose weight and start exercising again....but that was 13 months ago. LOL. I have been exercising since the day he told me I could exercise again. But he doesn't know I've changed my way of eating.

Oh well!
