[QUOTE="popsy, post: 521864, member: 85491"] Know what zand? It's never easy to get back to something that used to be...so why try to? What I mean is that what used to be isn't what's now is it? Right now you are the weight you are with the fitness level you have so go with that. Walk as far as you can [U][B]today [/B][/U]then tomorrow off you go again and gradually you will find that you are able to do more each day, walk further each day and feel fitter each day. For now, your calves will ache and your breath will come in gasps, you will be sweaty and you won't feel like the books say you ought to after exercise BUT in time your aches will go and your breath won't feel like it's being dragged up from underground! The only way you will achieve any of this is with persistence. Anyone who has ever achieved anything worth while has done it with day after day persistence. Ask Andy, the King of Persistence :happy: He would never have run that London Marathon without it. Now maybe your next goal is walking around the block without collapsing but at least it IS a goal sweetie. And you will do it, really you will. You are a magnificent person zand, courageous and willing to work hard. Nothing will stand in your way. [B][SIZE=5]Oh, the Places You'll Go![/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=4][B]by Dr. Seuss[/B][/SIZE] Congratulations! Today is your day. You're off to Great Places! You're off and away! You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go. This wonderful poem is pretty long so here's the link. Believe it because you can do it. [url]http://homepages.ius.edu/HARRISLA/places.htm[/url] Go zand!! :joyful: [/QUOTE]
