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.

Hi @Oaktree yes I spent a couple of hours at a playground in a nature reserve with family I hadn't seen in ages. Then walked to the nearest station to get a bus home. I hadn't been there before but it was lovely.

Oh @Dimity

That sounds lovely. Glad that you had a nice day! Sometimes family days can be nice especially if we like the family members lol.

Thanks @Oaktree. True.

I've walked on 9 of the last 10 days and hope I can keep up the momentum.

Thanks for your messages @HenryX @Oaktree

I am still working on my health, Henry. Daughter’s health issues are ongoing, but she recently started a really fantastic job.
Probably shouldn’t message here, because I’m still not going for walks, Meggle. Good on you for going every day.

You are welcome to leave messages here. Hopefully you will get out of the contemplation stage of walking soon. Being here might encourage you!

@Dimity
You are doing fantastic with your walking!!! Well done! I hope I can keep up the momentum too. At least we have each other in mind for motivation. Having to report here keeps me walking every day.

Thanks @Oaktree . Have you walked today? I didn't really feel like it but walked around the block, very glad I stirred my stumps and did it.

Well I have just gotten back from my walk. It seems that the longer walk around the park has become my usual. Mainly because there are about 6 pokestops on that walk. I hatched two eggs on my walk today. Got a Meowth and a Litten. I also caught a cool ninja style Pokémon called Sawk! I enjoyed my walk but I am glad it’s done and out of the way for the day. I think I prefer to walk in the mornings though so I might try harder to fit it in, in the mornings from now on.

Hi @Dimity

we must have been posting at the same time. I just got back from my walk. Well done on getting it done even though you didn’t feel like it. I think sometimes we just have to push ourselves out the door. So proud of you!
