Nawchem, that is amaze-balls on the blood pressure!! (I now sound like I'm 12. I need more coffee...). Mine's been pushing 130/80ish the last couple times I was at the doctor and I've been hoping all this weight loss and exercise will bring it down some. It was in the 120s for years.

Adding walking to my workout routines is going on the backbench again, at least for a week or two. Because I stepped in a little hole at the dog park yesterday and twisted my other ankle. No kidding. Luckily it's not serious. I have a doctor's appointment for a few weeks from now, so hopefully they can refer me for some PT and maybe to a specialist, because this cannot keep happening.

Goal: Build some muscle, increase my flexibility, and become more capable.
