I am so impressed with you! You have made the first step to a life change. I’m on week 4 so can only repeat to you the excellent advice I have been given which is to just follow the programme, trust in it and keep your pace SLOW!

Good luck and let us know how you get on πŸ‘πŸ‘

Well done you. Especially as it’s hot out there. Keep it up. Have you thought of swimming or even walking in the pool . Water supports your joints. There are lots of people walking in the pool on the sessions I go to
