I am back and starting over
We have had such a stressful month that I am now at my highest weight ever. First as many of you know my 93 year mother fell and severely sprained her foot and ankle. Then the very same week my baby brother (he is 48) collapsed. After many tests something has shown up on the frontal lobe of his brain. He now needs an MRI…

anyone interested
I noticed another group has a goal to reach by Christmas. I believe there are only about 15 weeks left. I wondered if we wanted to include some type of challenge for ourselves to set a realistic individual goal and gently push each other to reach it. Winners of the challenge to get a strong epat on the back! What do you…

Some news
Well, I got the results from the doctor last night. First it isn't arthritis in my knee. He now thinks I might have cartilage or ligament damage so he is trying to book a MRI. He expects the wait to be about six weeks. Then he told me that my potassium is very low and wants me to start taking a supplement. At least, it all…

Question for you

Went for my weigh in and only lost a pound. Then my Dr. Sent me for xrays. He thinks I may have osteoarthritis in my knees which may be why they have been so sore. I need to walk more but there's a lot of pain when I do. I am just going to have to have the strength to do it. I need your help to keep me focused and not…
