I did great on Oxycise about three years ago, but because of first on thing then many others, I got out of the habit. I have almost everyone of the videos, but I have found they do not work just sitting on the VCR stand

I have now done level one video two days in a row, and I really want to keep up my motivation. that's why I decided to join this message forum. My email addy isbgumpert@swbell.net and I'd like for some of you to get on my butt and email me if I start slacking off! I'd be glad to do the same for any of you.

I had a very emotional year last year, I had two knee replacement surgeries, my husband had two susrgeries, one planned and one emergercy and my son had an emergency surgery. My had as in the hsspital twice, and kept us all concerned with him. He passed away last Monday and now I am trying to get my life back in perspective and to start taking care of myself.

I know Oxycise will make a difference, if I can just keep it up. Will all of you help me?

Hi Barb. First of all, let me say I'm sorry for your losses....it does sound like you've had a rough year!

I'm glad you've come back to Oxycise, though.... it really does improve our bodies AND our minds. I know I feel better emotionally as well as physically when I O! consistently.

I look forward to getting to know you better through your posts!

I understand were you are coming from. I too bought the O. System in 2001 when my daughter was only 3 months old.. I got started and saw major changes in my body in about 6 weeks. I did great. than with all the stress that i wasnt acknowledging that I was oing through after loosing my 23 month old son.... well ....... everything stakced against me... and my HEALTH went WAY down. now that i am getting back on the ball... well I am ready and need the same support.. my email is..... ladybugrus@hotmail.com and I too would love to have an email... maybe we could do that for each other every morning......

I will send you one tomarrow maybe even tonight....
Sending you smiles and a helping hand.... May you be blessed in your walk of life today.

Looking for help in the RIGHT place!
