@marvinjsturing. Good morning Marvin, I am excited to have a man along on this 12 week walk. It's always good to see things from different points of view. This program should be beneficial and hopefully remind you how good you felt when you walked 3-4 miles a day. When I was young, I walked at the most 5 miles three or four times a week. I always felt better when I did and then through work and other activities and obligations, exercise went by the wayside. Twenty-four hours a day weren't enough for everything, so I discarded exercise. Big mistake.
I am so impressed that you have conquered your health challenges, and you are able to work as you wait for your transplant . It is my hope that Lightening our Limbs plan will make all of us heathier and stronger. A bonus may be losing weight too. I hope you lose enough so that you can continue to prepare for you transplant surgery. Being active for 12 weeks, can't hurt, so I hope everyone benefits and has lighter limbs at the end of the 12th week. Even if I don't lose a lot of weight, I know it will make me stronger and healthier and I'll better deal with my Diabetes 2.
I feel like the theme song will be Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again." Every day I want to be on the road for twelve weeks and celebrate at the end.
I have to go back and see how many people plan to start, but we're already a small group, which is great for accountability. The Starting time is November 2nd, this Friday. I am getting prepared. One week of 15 minutes a day. We can do that and be ready to continue.

On your mark, get set, and we'll be ready to go this Friday, November 2nd to get a jump on the weekend.
Welcome, Marvin.
