Re: 5 minutes on the 'mill' !

I am 73, do my mini stepper daily for 45 minutes, love it, and very easy on the knees.

Re: 5 minutes on the 'mill' !

Good for you! Celebrate yourself some today. I know how hard grief can be and sometimes we do just shut down. It takes time to figure out the "new life" that we have and maybe don't want. 

 

I am going to remember your post and make it part of my motivation for my own physical wellness. Thank you. 

Detachment isn't the absence of love but the ability to take care of yourself in the midst of someone else's choices.

You are progressing impressively! It's day to day and there is no wrong 

amount of time. A treadmill bothered my lower back so I got an Elliptical.

It's No impact on joints at all. I got up to a mile and also walk my dogs a 

mile. You will get to your goal!

@sarahpanda  You are on a roll, Sarahpanda! I'm so proud of you.  Your treadmill personal record updates make my day! 🤗💯🏆  13 minutes can feel like forever on a treadmill, and you were able to have fun and do it beginning to end.  You're doing such a great job. Yay Sarahpanda! 😀🙌💯✨
