"Mom, your butt looks smaller."

Survivor1997

I would rather hear that than get flowers! :laugh:

About 3 weeks ago, I decided to get serious about walking 10,000 steps a day. Some days, it is hard to finish, but I am determined to reach that goal, every day. In the last 21 days I have walked over 80 miles!

After hearing my most favorite ever child utter those words, I got the tape measure out, as I hadn't measured for a couple months.
I've lost 2 1/2" off my hips, and an inch + off my waist. And, I dropped a jeans size. No other exercise, just walking, along with a sensible diet.

So for those of us here that can only handle low-impact exercise, get a decent pair of walking shoes and a pedometer. Granted, it is slow, but it can still be very rewarding. Don't let the idea that you can't keep up with Jillian deter you from reaching smaller goals.

Have a great week! :flowerforyou:
