Depresssion?
I am a little reluctant to admit this, but I think I may have a bit of depression sinking in. I go to bed at 7:30 and toss and turn until 6:00. I feel mostly OK during the day. I exercise for an hour every morning on my elliptical. Weather permitting, I run or walk several miles most days. On bad weather days, I exercise…

Snow shoes?
Anybody out there use snow shoes? My husband and I are thinking of getting some (and praying for decent snow this year) but don't really know anything about them.

Repetitive exercise
I have been working out on the elliptical 2x a day for a few weeks, increasing my time to 30-35 minutes each session. Do I need to change things up? Or is it ok to do the same exercise all the time? I ride my stationary bike most days and walk outside, weather permitting. I also do some strength exercises.

I was able to zip up my favorite jacket today :smiley: , something I have not been able to do since last April. I gained lots of weight last year after quitting smoking. Am on a journey to get back to my…
