    I love exercise like that. Walking, Jogging, Running, Swimming, and things like that can tend to get very boring very quickly. I think you can burn many calories in your own yard and doing things like that to show results. Would love to be helpful to you if possible.

    If any of you would like to add me I will try to be as helpful as possible, I'm still on my journey as well, and would like to know what works for you and what hasn't. Or maybe what you've tried that wasn't beneficial at all.

    I'm fairly new to this as well. Would love to have some friends to share the journey. I'm very nervous about this because I just had foot surgery and am on crutches for 2 weeks then in a walking boot for 6. Very worried about the exercise portion. I'm trying to make better food choices but... Help....
  • thanks very much.i am still in the learning process too.
