Hi
I’m Julia, 50 yo in the UK. Up until the summer last year I was running 20k a week and generally looking after myself really well. Then I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my foot so that put paid to the running and walking for 6 months. Then I hit the menopause. Now 3st heavier than I’d like to be. Bought an exercise bike, didn’t enjoy it so sold it. Have just bought a maxi glider 360 and a vibro plate and I’m enjoying those much more. My runnings days are over unfortunately but I can’t use that as an excuse not to look after myself. I find the mental battle so much harder than the physical one! Anyway I’m putting myself out there, saying to the world I’m going to do this!
