Thank you, Robin
 

I just read your response to Goodforme's post about anorexia. I have a major problem with exercise. I know it will help me lose weight faster, help control my diabetes and even lower cholesterol but I just can't seem to get going and DO IT! Yes, I go to the pool three times a week and I really have a good one hour workout while I'm there but as for land-based exercise...well, let's just say I'm a total slug. :o Your suggestion to start with just 5 minutes is a darned good one. I think I could handle that. Once I can do that without pain, I can increase it bit by bit. It makes perfect sense. I have a new stationary bike just sitting here gathering dust. I could be pedalling away on that while watching my soap each afternoon...even just for 5 minutes. I can DO THAT! Thanks for the inspiration. Others may have said it before you, but yours was the post that got to me. Thanks again.

Shall we do 5 minutes together next Sunday! I'm serious!

your very welcome Linda :)

The best part of all of this ......the pains in my legs and feet are gone. It took a very long time. But I dont wince in pain when I get off the couch any more.

You can do it...5 min at a time or one block at a time or even one set of commercials during your soaps at a time.

Robin, you have truly spoken to the slugs of the world! I can do 5 minutes, even as busy as I am! :lol:
