Wow, JK, you are an exercise expert. When I was young, I did aerobic dancing, power walking, and swimming, but only the aerobic dancing was with a group. But as I am older, I make excuses not to exercise. Then I got this Mayo Plan. It looks like it will be progressive enough to start slowly and move up a week at a time. That's something I can do. If you think it will work for you, then add it and you can see if it makes a difference. It may be too easy, but you'll determine that. It's the one part of having Diabetes 2 that I have not been able to do. I have my food under control, so I have to add exercise. This Mayo Plan is something I can am going to do. Maybe I'll lose a few pounds, but mainly I need to be healthier and stronger.
Come along and you can see how it measures up to the other exercises you are doing. Thanks for suggesting MyFitnessPal. That sounds like a good tool also. I figure if we have the tools, we can get the job done.
Glad to hear from you.

@retiredteacher Thanks Carol. I will probably be more interested in diet tips and accountability on that if that is part of the group. If not then perhaps it won't work for me. I really do not like to walk outside, but I could do my walking on the track at my health club. Actually after walking so many miles on vacation I had been thinking about getting back to walking on the track.
