I had great intentions to start exercising again and have made some progress but mostly I'm still being lazy. <br /><br />I hope you've had a better week of both editing/writing and exercising. :)Julie Flandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05003737491313673214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1598482777681428179.post-40945358075670869802012-10-18T11:25:42.007-04:002012-10-18T11:25:42.007-04:00Thanks for stopping by today, Tonja.

It's always tough to get started, but then once you get going it's not too bad, and I always feel better after doing both. Now, if only I could work on the laptop while I go for my walks, life would be perfect. Glad you're making such great progress. Luanne G.

Increase gradually. Try walking for a half hour, then add one more exercise every day or every time you exercise if it's 3 x's a week. If you do this for 20 days, it's supposed to become habit. Walking is one of the easiest things to fit in.<br /><br />I'll bet the mouse at least gets the heart rate up. . . good luck, I'll cheer you on. I used to buy the exercise mags to get motivated.D.G.
