Hi Nancy,
I know what you mean about walking. I have found that when I went to
the school track to walk I couldn't do it. It hurt my legs and feet and felt
exhausted afterwards. I found that at the gym I can walk on the treadmill
much easier and for a longer period of time.
I don't know how well this will help with getting the weight off, but
I am definitely going to give it my all. I am going on a cruise (to alaska)
in August and I am determined to get some strength up. The cruise was
planned before this happened to me last July. It is hard to believe that in
an hour and a half you can go from a very active busy life to almost not even
able to walk around the corner. But you know what, you have to think really
positive (I know sometimes it is hard) and keep thinking we can live a good
life but maybe just a little slower pace.
Please keep trying and I'll keep trying and I'll let you know how it
goes.
Actually I am really excited because one of our TMer's on the list
wound up to live a short distance from me and we are meeting tomorrow for
dinner. I am so glad to sit and talk to someone else who understands.
Well, please take care and keep up the good work.
Angela from PA
