:cussing: Why, oh why do the cursed demons of electronics destruction always know exactly when your warranties expire?!?

I purchased the extended warranty for my treadmill, but wouldn't ya know it expired earlier this year and the blamed contraption conked out yesterday. My husband was on it, then came out suddenly and said, "I think the treadmill's on fire." Sure enough, the whole room smelled like a roasted robot and when the smoke cleared...ding dong the machine was dead. Grrr! I'm down 20 lbs--halfway toward my goal to lose 40--and now I've got to find the gumption to get out there in the cold and wet outdoors if I want to continue.

:cry: I want my old friend back again. Oh, Sparky...how I will miss your cushioned tread, your digital readouts, your magazine stand and your dual cup holders. Boo hoo!
 
:laughing: Im so sorry it broke on ya. :cussing: Congrats on the weight loss thats fantastic. you can do it. walking outside in the cold isnt as much fun but least you will be motiviated to move quickly. :whistle:
 
LOL...thanks, 3mnkids1.
Hey, did you know that you can actually still work out on a dead power treadmill? :headbang: I've discovered since the mishap that I can still raise the hydraulic lift thingy to put the board at a steep incline, then use that gravity advantage to turn the belt. It's a lot tougher workout this way, but I figure I can get it done more quickly. :laughing: What I won't do to keep from going out in the rain...am I a wuss, or what?
