    Hi! This first thing I do when I get up, after recording my bp and other vitals, is to jump on the treadmill. I’m up to 30 minutes at one time and am increasing the time and the speed weekly. I started at 5 minutes a WEEK, not a day, 5 min a week. I was so out of shape, but within a month I’m up to 30 minutes a DAY. I plan on continuing to increase until I hit 10,000 steps a day, roughly 5 miles. Also, I am going to start adding strength training 2-3 times a week starting next week. The only thing that worries me about that is squeezing that strength training into my already very strict schedule. But I’ll find a way to do it. Much success to ALL! 🤗

    That’s huge! Making a routine of going to the gym is always great and holding yourself accountable when you don’t! Way to go!
