  • I have COPD as well but not advanced enough to be on oxygen yet. Walking is great! I've even gotten to the point that I can do 30 second jogging in my walks. Great job to you and the best of luck!
  • I've been saving up calories here and there all week for this. Also, the calorie count for today, is what I could have for maintenance, so it's not too crazy.
  • Thanks. I'm hoping to work my way up to running and more physical stuff. I can get by with a "normal" life with minimal use of my rescue inhaler, but that's not good enough for my former athlete self.

  • I guess I should add that I have COPD which is very hard to work out with. I've been slowly building that up though.
  • I'm 175lbs, size 14 jeans last time I checked, x large top (h cup breasts contribute to that x large) and walk 2 hours a day plus 30-45 minutes of sit ups/push ups/ leg lifts/ weights 3 days a week.
