Going to start today because my BMI is telling me that I'm overweight, and I've known this as well because of my swollen stomach.

I'm so sorry, I did not go out for my walk yesterday because of all the rain. What I did do is walk along my paving fast for 5 minutes. I need motivation

I can't say I blame you though Sunday wasn't too bad here. Saturday however was wall to wall rain and I didn't get out then.

Motivation is always tricky. All I can tell you is that since I started this Active 10 lark I'm walking better and faster, losing weight and feeling good (after the initial pain).

I have to be careful when it is cold and wet out because I also have COPD {Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease}.

Today I walked fast up and down my paving for 3 minutes. Will keep increasing the minutes. Just not the same when walking on the pavement past houses and nature.
