Hi Katejen1. I am a new member also, almost a month now. I turn 65 in May. Fortunately I don't have many problems. The desire is all you need, keep trying!!!! I hear swimming exercises are really great and easier on your body if you have access to a pool on a regular basis. My exercise is power walking. I am up to a 17 minute mile for 3.5 miles, three days a week. Shooting for 6 days a week by next month. I love the outdoors and listen for birds and other nature sounds as I walk. In the fall I will have to find another exercise.

Hi Katejen1, I am not experiencing the same problems. I just wanted to welcome you to spark and you will find a lot of supportive people with similar problems. And they have great articles. Be sure to use the nutrition tracker. That is something I use faithfully because it keeps me on track. Deb

I'm Diabetic. and on insulin which makes me feel like I'm starving all the time. Because of numerous health problems including multiple disc and spinal sternosis. exercising is very difficult .I can walk possibly a half of block at a time.4years ago I was walking at least 1-2 miles a day because of varies health issues my activity level has dwindle to almost nothing except passive exercises and swimming. Unfortunately I could loss only 20 lbs. 1n18months,while I was in another weight loss program. I'm very frustrated and depress easily. Is any one out there in internet heaven experiencing similar problems? Please reply .I really need the support. Thanks so vary much...
