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.

@TAB I wasted money on a cordless stick vac. No suction and awful to empty and unclog and clean filters.

Re: Walking for Wellness
So I've been slack. Been unwell. Haven't done exercises. So sore. Or maybe it's a virus. I'll try to start again when I'm up to it.
But I've walked, even if only half the usual distance.

Re: Walking for Wellness
My walking and exercise routines have been disrupted by my hip injury in April. Maybe I will get back to it. Maybe some exercises today. I liked hearing you talk about it. Yep, resistance bands and dumbells are around. Hip has imporoved enough to get started slowly again. @GezzaP@Dimity@Oaktree@TAB@tyme

Re: Walking for Wellness
@Dimity@Oaktree@Appleblossom@TAB@tyme good morning all. Well eventually this morning the sun came out and I was able to walk up the shop. I have to walk round the garden to check for any damage from the storm we supposedly had last night.
Have a good day.
