    Thank you so much for all your responses! I walked for 10 minutes today! It was hard, it is embarrassing to say that but it was. But I am going to do it again tomorrow too! And I plan to add 5 minutes each week until I can do a lot more! Thanks to all of you for the advice and support!

    When I first started walking, 5 minutes was all I could handle. I blamed it on my stroke but...... it was WAY more than that. I just was so fat and out of shape @ 288lbs that I could only walk for 5 minutes.

    Now I'm a hundred pounds lighter and I just came back from a light hike of 55 minutes with an easy 8lb pack.... and the ONLY reason I came back so fast was because my companions are just starting their journey and were tuckered out. I had a good 45 more minutes left in me and may well head back out this afternoon for another trip.

    In 8 more months I expect to be on a 4/5/6 hour hike with a 20lb pack and LOVING it!

    Seriously, baby steps. You'll get there and it will feel so freaking amazing you won't believe it.
