Re: Are You Making New Year Resolutions?

I make no resolutions because I can make changes anytime, I don't need a date on a calendar to do that. It's a choice to make a change and the starting point can be any date you choose...no need to wait until the end of the year to do that:-)

Its admirable to try to lose weight through exercise, but does your doctor or physical therapist think that tread milling or bicycling is appropriate for a bad back? Some exercises are counterproductive. 


@Justice4all

Exactly.  I've bought two exercise bikes and one treadmill and after a number of weeks gave them to my daughters.  They killed my osteoporotic back.  I didn't have to lose weight, per se, I just needed to tone up. 

 

Walking is the best, and every day if possible (not running).  Unfortunately, I can't do that anymore either.

I'm changing careers in 2017.  Big step but I'm really excited to get it done.

I planned to join (and use) a gym in 2017 as a New Year's resolution. Unfortunately, I have a fractured vertebrae in my lumbar spine, so I'll have to wait a couple months until that heals.

I don't usually, but this year I am.

 

My resolution is to go to bed earlier and get up earlier!

Re: Are You Making New Year Resolutions?

No. Never have, never will. If I feel that I need to make a change of some sort, I do it. I don't wait for a date on the calendar.
