Good morning

Mo thanks for the start. I need to get the weight off too. I just turned 63 on 1/16. I have never been so unhealthy and I know it is due to the weight.

Amy good luck today. I hope you get the TM too.

Debbie that's great the shoes are working. I need new ones too. So sorry to hear about your band leader and cousin's wife. So sad.

I went to my WW meeting yesterday. It was good. Been meeting my 10K steps this week. My left foot is hurting me. I think I have a stress fracture (another reason to get this stupid weight off).

Weather is really nice here today. Outside for a walk it is!!

Debbie yes thanks for asking I am feeling better :-)

Good morning! Thanks for starting us Mo! And it's good to hear from you!

Sounds like time for new beginnings all around! Perfect for the new year!

Amy, a new TM, how exciting!!

Brenda, why do you think you have a stress fracture? I hope not! If you think you do you might want to consider having a bone scan of your foot. Xrays don't usually show a stress fracture but a bone scan will -and then you'd want to stay off that foot for 4-6 weeks. I speak from experience, whine.

Brenda, enjoy your walk outdoors today!! Maddie will like that too!

Winter has found Syracuse again so we just have to get used to it and enjoy dreams of spring. My foot hurts (not surprising). I'm beginning to think I should be on crutches for awhile to avoid walking (but still use the exercise bike since it's not weight bearing). I have an appointment and presumably xray next week with the podiatrist -I'll ask him. But in spite of my continuous whining, the bone stimulator does seem to be helping, the foot is improving, I just didn't think it'd take so long!
