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.

@TAB @Thekindone @Jimbo2 @Eve7 @BPDSurvivor @Shaz51 @tyme @Former-Member

Just got back from my daily walk. It was a short one today but I was still huffing and puffing from walking up the hill that I live on. That’s the problem with walking, I always end by walking up my hill. Listened to music on the way. I can’t say I love walking yet but I am beginning to get used to doing it every day.
