Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
I hope it gets easier for me too. I struggled to do my time on the treadmill. I should get fitter if I do it regularly.
Good on you for walking and exercising, you are doing well

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Good work @Oaktree 😀👍
I’ve been on two walks this weekend and also eating much healthier and less. Podcasts and headphones are my best friends when walking 😀

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Sounds great @P0larBear
By next weekend my daughter will be here and she has said that she will go walking with me. Good on you for walking and making changes to your diet. I am planning to really start dieting on Wednesday. My lite n easy order gets here on Tuesday.

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
I'll need to rethink my diet too @P0larBear @Oaktree .
Today was day 2 of my renewed exercise focus. I walked and did prescribed exercises. Probably did some damage lifting heavy boxes later.
The plan is to see what I can achieve in 2 months.

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Good plan. Just do a little with your boxes each day. Set small goals. Slowly but surely you will reach your target. Procrastination is a real thing. Good job on your walking.

@Dimity @P0larBear @TAB @Shaz51 @Former-Member
Another good start to my day today. Went to the gym and did a short standing weight routine with light weights and then followed that up with some time on the treadmill. Sure beats walking in the rain. Weather has been a bit dodgy here lately

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Glad the gym has some advantages @Oaktree . I'm persevering too. I think the first few days are bound to be hard until the routine sticks.

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Well done on persevering with your new routine. I am sure it will get easier but at least we have this thread as support and motivation until and even after then

Re: Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits
Thanks @Oaktree , very true. And appreciated. This thread was a real help when I first committed to walking a couple of years ago.
You're doing well too.
It's good we're both starting again at the same time, we can cheer each other on.
