OK this was something I would have never been able to do.  Since Shape up RI kicked off today I told myself I was going to walk up the stair to my office at least 3x a week to start.  from basement to 5th floor.  OMG I did it and not even out of breath.  The hip even held up.  I think Next week will try it 4x a week.  I still can not get over how much more I can walk now. It is great. Hope everyone is doing well. see ya at the next support group.

Love,
Lisa

Way to go Lisa!!!   That is awesome!  My friend and I used to remark about how winded we used to get walking down the stairs to our cafetaria at work - and now we can do it no problem - can even walk on the stairs and talk without gasping  lol.   Keep up the great work hun!

Lisa ~ Hello.  Look at you kicking exercise butt!    What a great feeling that must be to climb those stairs and not be panting for breath when you reach the top.  Your hip, your wrist....you're amazing!

Thanks to everyone,

  Today I think it got even better.  I walk from my house to the front of the park where I live to get my mail after work and back to the house.  witch on my step counter was 6000 steps.  Oh yeah and I walk it there and back in 30 min  part of the way I  power walked.  I still can get over I did it in  30 min .  Chip said he would not have believed it but,  I brought the mail home with me so he knew I did go.  Tell yah what   THERE IS NO WAY ANYONE IS EVER GONNA STOP ME.!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I could not have done this whole journey without you guys  you guys are my rock.  You keep me strong with your stories and journey you are on.  I love you all  from the bottom of my heart.  My 2nd family. 

Love
Lisa
