I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.
I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting back.
Walking greatly improves my mental health too. I'm feeling less irritable and depressed after walking.
I want this to be a support thread for people who exercise and eat healthy so if you do any of that post here!

I feel shooting lightning sharp pains from my hip down to my toe when one of those main nerves in my legs finally dies from being starved of oxygen. That happened this morning and the pain lasted into the evening, so there was no walking for me. The nerve damage is why I was in a wheel chair 3 times last year, and yet each time I got back on my feet with the help of a cane.
Hope I can get up and going again tomorrow. Support welcome.
