Checking in to say happy December and welcome to the new walkers. My foot is still very busted. I got into a hotel pool 3x last week and did lots of yoga there which was good for me. I've been walkng at least a mile a day all month but it's so hard to not over do it. I'm struggling to do other exercise like start lifting again or do chair workouts without my feet while it heals.
The good news is I'm really working to get my diet controlled while I'm not fueling long walks and runs. Waiting for a foot brace to arrive that I can wear for more support. Hoping to slowly increase my walking and maybe start jogging again in spring if that works out too.
But for now little walks and not pounding my feet for extended periods, and more stretching is my December agenda!2 -

I restarted using MFP on October 30 2021 for the 3rd time. I use walking as my exercise and love Leslie even though a lot of times I just walk watching TV or in circles in my office. Sometimes I get to walk outside but that's rare because the weather has to be just right. I use Fitbit to track my steps/miles. I'm not new to the group, I've just been inactive for a few years.

December Goals
Miles Tracked: 34 / 75 miles
Apple Watch Challenge: Burn 6217 / 15,200 Calories this month.
Wow!!!! Everyone is doing great this month. Welcome back to the group @Americanbabydoll glad you're joining us again.
I've had my first visit with PT and it's safe to say my mileage will be reduced for a bit while we work out this kink in my ankle.

I went ahead and did a burn to the beat this week but mostly only waking up to 1 mile at a time and wearing my ankle compression
My foot feels better most of the time so healing is working but I can't wait to get back to my regular morning walks in January! In the meantime I'm being diligent about stretching and trying to do weights 3x a week for the next few weeks to get in the habit. It will help my tone and my overall health to do light weights a few times a week
Tomorrow I'm trying chair Zumba for seniors 🤣3 -
@mypinkbikini - chair zumba is a real thing?? Is it a class you are trying? That's a hoot!
So I've been doing good with increasing my activity per my 15 minute goal since I joined this thread - even though I have not used the Leslie Sansone videos as much as I expected, just knowing they're there seems to be encouraging lol 🙃
