At last I have started again at the gym and am so pleased that I did. In the last year I have tried so many different things to get myself motivated to get fitter and the gym wasn't something I wanted to do again. However, I have to say I am so glad that I did and I have a programme to keep me on target.

That's good exercise too, vere. You'll be as fit as a fiddle in no time and have a happy dog as well. Well done! Sue x

Well done Vere in persevering.

Enjoy your gym sessions.

It's a lovely day here, and l am allowed to take my new puppy out for his first on the lead walk today, now his vaccinations have taken effect.

I am so excited....l have no idea how far he will go, but l have a feeling he will go so far, then plonk his bum down and l will end up carrying him back. 😂😂

Well done vere ! Keeping yourself exercised is vital for all of us here. You've done exceptionally well to go back to your gym and look how you seem to be enjoying it. I could be very wise and take your lead and join a gym myself to be completely honest - well overdue! Congratulations on being so active,as it's not easy everyday.

Thanks SquirrelsHolt

It's very nice of you to comment. I am 72 years young and have been told by Gym that three times a week for 30 minutes is enough for now. Tomorrow is day 2. All the best to you and hope you get round to it when you feel ready. Let me know please.

Vere, that's GREAT !!!!

I did the same thing about 3 months ago, have enjoyed every minute of it and am still going strong. As out of shape as I was, it's gonna take a while to whip it back into some kind of sturdiness but that's all I have...., time.

Keep it up and you'll feel better'n better....
