A whole mile!

This may not seem like much to most of you, but I just walked a mile on my lunch hour - it took me 22 minutes to do it, but I did it! It has been years since I've walked that far.

It IS a big deal. Walking used to be my nightmare. Now it doesn't faze me a bit, even though I still have some pain in my left knee. I walk 1.5 miles on my lunch hour daily and it feels great. As you lose weight, you'll be able to do even more.

Congratulations!

Thank you! I started out just walking to the end of the block and back after my surgery and I keep increasing weekly. I am amazed and how much better I feel just 5 weeks after my surgery than I did before my surgery.

congrats! It is a great feeling.

Every year we go to an outlet mall in August before school starts to buy school clothes for the kids. In the last few years before surgery I couldn't even make it around the mall before being too exhausted to keep going. half an hour, to an hour tops. This year we waited and went about 1 month after my surgery. Do you know, even in that little bit of time I had improved so much that I was able to walk around for 5+ hours shopping. It felt wonderful. My bank account didn't care for it so much, though.
