Hi everyone, I am so ready to get back in shape again.. I had back surgery February 11,2021. So I will need to take things slowly. I was on the treadmill for 10 minutes today. I never thought that I would be saying "it's a good start" but, I am. I will be adding between 1 and 5 minutes each day until I can get up to 45 minutes but, of course I will have to listen to what my body is saying I can do. I will also be watching what I am eating a lot more than I was. lets just say I was watching what I was eating but, just watching it go in my mouth, not what I was actually eating.

    I love that last bit, I have been doing the same for a while, I am also trying to get back into a good grove!

    I hope you back hold up for you. Definitely listen to your body, having back issues is nothing to play around with!
