JaneX--You are more than welcome to join us here! I'm sorry no one said welcome earlier when you first posted. I've been away for a long weekend and this is the first time I've logged on since last Thursday. We really try to cheer each other on to meet simple efforts to get moving every single day--it doesn't have to be a big work out and I really encourage people to think of how they can incorporate movement from our everyday lives.

While I was away, I didn't do any of my workouts, but every day we went for a walk around the town we were visiting for some shopping, checking out restaurants for lunch, etc. Some of my friends went for a hike one day, but I skipped that because I'm still trying to get my ankles back in shape. This afternoon I'm starting some formal PT for my ankles, finally.


Goals: To be more capable, able to take part in active travel, and participate in new activities.
Interim goals: Stand up from seated position easily using just my feet, walk 2 miles without feeling it, climb 2 flights of stairs without getting winded, do a push-up (knees)
