Suher said he began working out for his health.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got a kidney transplant four years ago and I gained too much weight, and I wanted to lose some more weight. And I felt good doing it, I brought my A1C down quite a bit. The doctors at the hospital were very happy with me that I\u2019m doing this. So, it worked out very well for me,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t want to miss a day and I feel much better.\u201d<\/p>\n

He offered advice to people who may want to start working out and also make it a routine.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust try it, don\u2019t give up. Try it one time, and maybe a second day and third day. Not everybody can do every day like I can,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
