Hi Shari!

I don't know if I'm this you're referring to as there are other 's here--though only ONE -Marie--lol.

Anyway, I don't belong to a gym though I have a gym/spa in the high rise condo I live in. My "gym", if you will, is in Rock Creek Park in the city and I speed walk or briskly walk (depending on how I feel and the weather) about 5-7 miles 5 times per week. I don't go out if I'm having a bad day or have my period--it's too painful. I stretch before going and I go at near sunset as the afternoon hours are too hot and early morning is out of the question because I sleep later.

I wear bike shorts and a tee and good running shoes so I'm comfortable. I wait at least an hour-two after eating before going out to avoid cramping. Though I do still feel "bruised", I do feel better physically and psychologically afterward. I take a long shower than become a couch potato for the remainder of the night unless I'm going out.

I hope this helps.

Hugs,

Hey girls!!Just reading up on some posts (trying to catch up) and noticed some good references to working out... Of course I know is a work out freak (Mrs. Hot!!) as we met in Sun Valley but it seems that - you are too. What is the secret there? I want to get into this so badly but I hurt sooooo bad after the least little thing I try and I am stuck. My muscles are damaged in my left arm/chest area so I can't lift as much or straighten my arm over my head (yet another wonderful side affect of nasty fake boobs). It sua as I am left handed ... oh well. I would like to get into shape before this TV stuff starts hitting the fan but I cannot afford a membership to a gym so I was looking for some suggestions. I have been doing a

ton of stretching lately and have been paying for it dearly. My FM has been so bad lately w/ the flares I am scared to do too much. Any ideas girls?thanks and loveShari
