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
Sounds like good progress @TAB . Well done.
I didn't get time to walk for a couple of days but exerted myself in other ways. Today I'm very sore... joints and muscles so I found my walk painful.

Nice idea @TAB but no chance. Helping someone with a big clean up. Might try a hot bath.

Hi guys,
I have been taking some time off walking whilst waiting for my toe to heal. I had an ingrown toenail. It’s feeling much better now. Need to get back into the walking.
Glad to hear from you!
