Treadmill
Hi Shelia, I'm doing good with the treadmill---not doing miles yet though. I'm working on 3 sessions of 10 minutes each every day. Walking a lot faster now. Still having some tweaks in my ankle (the Dr told me it might take a year to heal) --but most of the time now I don't have to use the cane. I am back on my diet and losing weight. Lost 10 lbs so far--but still have a long way to go. I have lost enough weight that my dress size has shrunk and like you--I am taking in and changing buttons on things that are like new that I haven't worn for years. I also bought a few new things too. But mostly I like my old loose pants and tees and long lounge dresses. Glad you are doing so well--it gives me encouragement to hear it. My Dr has me eating 5 small meals a day and eating off a 10 inch plate--mostly veggies, and a lot of salads. I am close to being a veggie now--so have to be careful about nutrition. When my blood sugar drops at night I no longer eat a couple cookies--he has me eating half a banana. And because of that--I no longer wake up with an upset stomach in the morning and my blood sugar is becoming more level. Good luck with the diet and exercise--you are an inspiration. xx Berneta
