Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits

Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits

  • So I took part in Topic Tuesday this evening on Physical Activity for Mental Health. I feel motivated so I am going to give up my couch potato ways and start to make an effort to get outside to walk for exercise. I am hoping that I will improve my mental health whilst losing weight and increasing fitness. I am going to keep you updated about my progress here. Feel free to join in - the more the merrier! Maybe we can help motivate each other.

Re: Walking for Wellness

Well I have to get fit and lose weight before an op in maybe 2 months. I'd slacked off after a setback in May and went backwards.

Lots of reasons to do it. Op, heart, prediabetic.

Lots of reasons it's been hard including MH and pain from a couple of conditions.

Had "the talk" yesterday.

I think I can get back to walking every day. Committing to the exercises won't be as easy. And then there's the diet. But I'll give it a go. I'll have to ease into it as I'm feeling a bit miserable with a cold.

Best wishes on your own efforts @Shaz51 @Oaktree @TAB @Former-Member @tyme and all following.

Re: Walking for Wellness

Hope you can get the weight loss meds you need @TAB. There's been shortages of some. I'll be following some dietary guidelines and portion control advice I was given a while back, no meds.
