More than walking.

So my interests in activity are increasing, but my knees and back are still saying.."um no!"
so given the fact that running and jumping are still not options (may never be) on top of my regular walks I am adding crunches into my daily activities and balancing beams in whatever shape they take.... parking blocks small walls along the sidewalk. I got carried away the other day and jumped around some and now my knees and left foot are screaming at me, but I won't let this discourage me.

Breakfast consisted of Greek yogurt, sugar free preserves to sweeten it, and about half a cup of natural granola and water.
been thinking Yoga would be a wonderful addition to my routine... flexibility would be an excellent means to help lose weight and prevent injury, Finding so many things that would be beneficial. so many easy things that do not require a huge time commitment and are low impact. I have given up on weighing myself for the time being, I refuse to be slave to a number I however judging my progress by my increases in energy levels, my clothes fitting better, and most importantly. How great I am feeling.
My goals are to start living the life I have, to celebrate the gift, to increase my activities as I can to successfully show the world that injuries and chronic conditions no longer control the quality of life I live.
