    I will need to push myself, forntje past 6 months I’ve had a problem with my hip, I was born with the problem but didn’t find out until this year. The specialist said I’m too young for a hip replacement. I was told to do exercises and lose weight and see if that helps. I’ve been seeing a physio thearapist and he had me feeling a little. It better but the last few days I’ve been back into the excruciating pain. I have to push through because I know I can’t live on pain killers

    Have you done any water exercise? The weightlessness & low impact may allow for increased activity. As your doctor or therapist for alternatives

    @JeBeBu thanks I have done water exercises and it feels very good, but because it doesn’t hurt I go overboard then when I get out of the water I suffer, I need to find a happy medium

    Maybe look into taking a class so there is a "stop" built in? Our local Y has all the traditional aerobics classes, but also a regular water walking class and an arthritis water walking class. I teach advanced aquacise (we incorporate dumbbells, resistance bands and balance balls) but there are options for so many fitness levels. I also do deep water aqua jogging, both tethered and free running

    Sunday September 1

    Visiting family, took the huskies for a walk around the neighborhood. This equaled 1.4 miles. B)q4sbqxymes92.png

    I went for a nine mile walk with my son this morning. My feet are telling me that this won't be happening again any time soon. :)

    Been on MFP before and challenges are very helpful. Would like to join this for daily tracking if possible. I forget how this works, is there a formal join process or do we just post/edit post for progress updates?

    Just post whatever you did to fulfill your mile each day in September. :)

    Overachiever! Hope you're not too sore tomorrow. If I did 9 miles in one day, I'd be in traction. I used to be in good enough shape to do a 7 mile hike, hope to get there again.

    Kind of a lazy day, but I did get in my mile walk and complete day 1 of my 4 week challenge. I have a Fitbit challenge kicking off tomorrow, too so I can't let down 3 seperate challenge groups and myself! Can't. Won't.

    Day 2 complete. I took a 5 mile walk with my daughter this morning; first half was shaded and cool, but the return trip sure got hot and humid! 😧

    I guess that's what I get for going out without my make-up done! But, on the bright side, scored some sweet stuff!
