    I love the idea of the trekking poles but how do I hold the leash, the bag of poop and the poles?  Well the leash wouldn't be a problem but the 'other'.  Ya I know...............leave doggus at homeFrown

    I will but I have to get myself out of this depressed frame of mind and I am sure that exercise will help.

    Oh gosh Mum.  Gentle hugs.  Seems a few of us have been 'in the dumpster' lately.

    Oh, mum, you've made my day. I thank god for this thread.

    And I'm sorry that you're feeling blue. I think sometimes it's just there. Exercise at least gets you out of your head a little (for me, anyway) and out there with the rest of the world. Let us know how things go with pathology. 

    So much for my resolve to go to the gym at midday. For me it's first thing in the morning or nothing. (It's like taking medication--I can't think about it, I just have to do it.) I did go today and did 20 slower minutes on the treadmill and 25 minutes on the bike.

    OK, today I will walk! Yes! Yesterday was my birthday, so THAT'S my excuse. But the chocolate cake I had won't be coming off by itself! I feel happy today, too, so that helps. I love the pics you guys post of your animals. They are soooo cute, Sharon's dog and Mumayan's fat kitty. Laughed out loud. Ok, ladies, here I go. I'll post tommorrow and let you know how I did.

    Sharon, re trekking poles and dog - here is what you do:  Train the dog to carry his leash and tie the poop bag to his collar.   No worries. . .  Cool 

    My office mate and I have set a goal, to walk or exercise for at least thirty minutes a day.   We are using RealAge.com to track our results, as it gives us 'standing ovations' and 'ribbons' when we meet our goals on weekly and monthly basis.  So silly, but fun.

    I'm going to use the poles when I snowshoe this winter.  Then doggus can be loose.  Our walks now are along the side of the roadway.  I think the poles will be really great for my LE.  Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.  HEHEHE.  (I know, bite my tongue.)

    Lorrie, I worked today too, so no regular exercise. I did buy one of those pedometers and hooked it around my waist. It shows I took 3975 steps and walked 1.5 miles and burned 109 calories. It's actually more than I THOUGHT I did....hehe. Guess I can have an extra chocolate chip cookie tonight before bed........LOL

    Happy Birthday Debisongbird---------chocolate cake..........YUUUUUMMMOOOOOO

    Did forty minutes at the gym this morning between the treadmill and the bike. Getting a cortisone shot today in one or both knees. 

    coonie, loved the picture. A little too close for comfort.

    OMG!  Coonie, I love the picture!  ROFL!

    September--awesome workout.  I hope your cortisone shots work well for you!  My MIL gets them for her knees and it makes such a difference in her life!

    Coonie--do it!  Oh, and you got me to get out my step counter too.  It really gets me to stop sitting on my butt (which I love to do Surprised)!

    I did my Firm workout this morning!  Hurray!  I love to do this tape (yes...it's a VHS tape--I've had it that long).  I think I'm going to try to find it on DVD because the tape is starting to act funky!

    Have a great day!

    No gym for me today. Had two cortisone shots (one in each knee) yesterday and am waiting to feel...something. So far no change. The PA did tell me it can take a couple of days for it to kick in. When I had a cortisone shot a few years ago for a heel spur, I remember it worked like magic. But maybe the magic took a couple of days to kick in.

    I wonder if the Femara I'm taking has anything to do with it. Anybody here have joint issues with Femara?

    Hi all - Well, gonna exercise (some) today. I love strapping on my pedometer. I feel empowered by that little device. Yesterday was a total bust for me. I was bad. Tried taking valium to help me sleep and had nightmares. So, that's that. I was out of it yesterday and in terrible pain. I think the pain is worse when you don't sleep. Anyway, I ate like it was my last meal. Anything I wanted and LOTS of chocolate. (oops) Today, however, is a NEW day. I did sleep some last night and I am getting out of this house and walking!!!

    Congrats Mum on your report!!! I hope to be saying that soon. I have to be retested in a week or so because my tumor markers were high. And supposed to have another operation 11/11. So, I will be glad when I can shout...ALL CLEAR!!! Have some champange for me, too.

    Just wondering, September Song, how long have you been taking Femara?

    p.s.  Love the pics and graphics everyone. LOL.

    I went climbing last night at the climbing gym and will go again tonight. 

    I am slacking right now, skipping my lunch time walk.  We had a staff meeting that ran late and I have a lot to do.

    Debi,

    I started on Femara Jan. 1, 2009. Hard to believe it's coming up on a year.
