edited September 23 in Introduce Yourself
I am excited about giving this a try. I have tried just about every diet, and know that keeping track is so important. I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis since September and have gained a lot of weight since I haven't excercised because of the foot pain. I really need encouragement.

    Oh! I have planter faciliitis, too! It's actually one of my reasons to lose weight, I am so tired of my feet hurting ALL. THE. TIME.

    I just keep doing stretches and good, supportive shoes or inserts are an absolute MUST. Walking and light aerobic activity has been fairly easy for me, though I am struggling with foot pain for a little while after each work out. I knew this journey would be a painful one, for many reasons other than my feet, so I am focusing on pushing through the pain. Much luck to you - you WILL reach your goal!!!

    Hi
    For me it all started with plantar fasciitis. The best cardio exercise for someone with plantar fasciitis is swimming and riding a bicycle. I used to run and I got plantar fasciitis so I started to swim and cycle. Today I’m better with my PF so I ended up as a triathlete. I have finished my first olympic triathlon race two months ago.
    There are many things you can do to treat your PF although I understood that treatment efficiency is very individual. If something works for one it will not necessarily work for the other.
    I have found taping very useful. Taping will keep your foot from getting injured again and will help you get through your daily routine and exercises.
    I found a very informative website in:

    Take care & Good luck
