    @brendagaudette, did you feel like running out and finding some aquanet and teasing your hair super high afterwards? :-D I love my 80's music as well, I do not miss damaging the ozone layer with that spray though. Like, totally :smiley:

    And yay on the walk!

    Tomorrow I start Rebounding, I forgot that I have a mini trampoline in my cellar so I went down tonight and brought it up to go beside my treadmill...Now I have two different exercises I can do :)

    @blambo61 I used to do it a few years ago but I had plantar fasciitis at the same time so I stopped using and stopped walking because that hurt too and put it away along with my diet and totally forgot about it till yesterday...I only have 5 pounds to lose so I figure it's time to add in some other kind of exercise besides walking :)

    @wsandy8512 Yes it is lots of fun and my granddaughter loves it too :p

    @brendagaudette ugh, isn't plantar fasciitis the worst? I was laid up for months until I discovered trigger point therapy. I'm in no hurry to need TP for that again which is why I refuse to run or even jog until I'm closer to goal. So, will be a LONG time coming.

    Yes it hurt sooo bad!!! I bought a new pair of shoes and within a week it was gone and haven't had it happen again :)

    Nice. What kind of shoes, if you don't mind me asking?

    Total sympathy for all plantar fasciitis sufferers. I had it 6 years ago, had to put many layers of foam in a pair of slippers just to get around the house. Makes one appreciate feet when they work well!!! I also appreciated the beauty of the workings of the foot when I broke my right foot and had to use crutches. Our bodies are so complicated and so wonderful when they work correctly.

    I also broke my ankle about 15 years ago and had to have surgery on it and was on crutches for a long time, that was a pain!!! :(

    I struggle with a morton's neuroma (swollen nerve) between my 3rd and 4th toe on my right foot and just general sensitivity on the balls of both feet (metetarsalgia). Feels like I'm walking on waded up socks a lot. I'm using wide toes shoes to try to fix that and also a little pad under ball of big toes to cause that part of the foot to strike the ground 1st and that has helped some. Injuries stink!

    #blambo61 ughhh!!! Sometimes when I'm walking I get a throbbing pain in my big toe, not sure why but it's usually only near the end of my walk...Yes injuries stink!!! :/

    I rebounded 5 minutes yesterday and 15 minutes today...15 minutes is enough for now and I will also walk 45 minutes either on my treadmill or outside depending on the weather

    While I'm rebounding I do jumping jack's, leg lifts and jump/twist...So far nothing hurts and can feel the muscles in my butt and stomach tightening while I'm jumping so hopefully it will make them firmer o:)

    Day 2 of water fast and I'm feeling really good and not hungry yet, probably because I'm drinking lots of water and chewing gum...I just did my 15 minutes of rebounding and a 45 minute walk outside :)
