Thanks for the reply, Momma. Its disappointing to hear from you that jogging hasn't been too much help for the waistline issue, but I decided to be hopeful because this is the last thing I could really try!
Yes, I'm starting very slow -- just jogged from corner to corner, then took a short break and resumed -- jog was full of stop and go's. This is the best I could do at the moment! But I am happy I'm atleast making some effort at last, hopefully in the right direction!!
