New to My Fitness Pal

Shalvia62 · October 2014

Hi! My name is Nancy. I am a 52 y/o happily married mother of 2 grown children. I have lots and lots of weight to drop. Exercise is difficult due to my arthritis. I have total hip replacement (6 years old) and will be having the other hip replaced early next year. I have no cartilage left so life is a constant pain and my exercise options are very limited.

I have just started working with a wonderful personal trainer that understands working with orthopedic issues. I enjoy cycling and am working on cycling through the pain to try to build up the muscle and drop fat.

My hobbies include:
SCUBA (currently out of the water until the hip replacement)
Reading
Crochet
Polymer Clay crafting
Sewing
Cycling
My Dogs (5 Aussies), formerly showing but my show dog will be retired before I can show again

I work as the "Shop Mom" at a very small company that makes fire performance equipment.

Friends welcome!
