    Oh no Cat I hope you feel better soon. My family seem to getting one cold after another but so far I have managed to fight it off. Take care of yourself.

    Day 6

    Cat I hope you get better soon if I am stuck in bed I do bed exercises like rotating my ankles, sliding my legs up and down, lie on my side and do leg lifts each side (gentle ones) yoga breathing . It stops me feeling miserable that u am doing nothing.

    Getting better. In the middle of a course of steroids, so not about to get back on board til that is ove and I can exercise again. Still very congested and slight fever but definitely on the mend.
    Ann, your walking plans were so much fun and easy to do. Thank you so much. I hope you keep challenging us. The fruit reminders are so helpful.

    Veggies are easy for me. What is hard is NOT eating cookies. :D
    Thank for the challenges, Ann. You are lighting a fire under me.
    Cat, hoping for your continued improvement.

    I must try to be a good girl but with kids giving me 3 big eggs it's hard.

    Thank you Ann. I may not be able to do much, but at least I am moving five minutes a day. Some days, I do it twice

    I am glad I am trying to make them fairly easy so it just gets us moving.

    Yesterday, I found myself doing Ann’s moves throughout the day. Waiting on tea water to boil, sidestep til the water rolls. Go to the bathroom, march in place while washing hands. Walk through the dining room, wall pushups on the empty wall space ten times. Walk to the mailbox, swing my arms and hope the neighbors arent looking. Whatever I can remember from your daily plans, i can scatter here and there whenever I think of it. I hope to make this a habit.
    Today I start tracking again. Taking my five year old granddaughter on a shopping and lunch date. There will be plenty of walking around Target😂
