I've been trying to persuade my spouse that she could do this, including the bonus of connecting the treadmill to an electrical generator to power the TV and the rest of the house.Tape your favorite TV programs, set up a treadmill behind a TV and walk while forgeting that you're even excercising since you are focused on your TV.
I do this for 17 miles each week, 2.5 most days, watching old Sienfelds, Fraser Crain or any number of "old" comedy re-runs. I've lost 45 lbs over the past years, feel better now than I did 10 years ago. I do a little upper body as well....going for a total of 300 minutes excercise per week.
Overall, if you enjoy it, you'll do it! Congrats on your weight loss......you're already doing better than most.
Regrettably, her thoughtful and exceedingly thorough response is not suitable for reprinting on a family discussion board.
