@jk Thanks, JK for your inspiration to exercise. When I was first diagnosed, I was so angry that I didn't do anything. After I read enough to know that exercise would help, Mayo plopped the Walking Plan in my daily newsletter. It was a sign. So, I decided to start. With you going to the gym and pool, I was ashamed not to at least walk. So, several others joined, and the walking has become part of my routine. Now, I am thankful I can walk and will continue.I made my walking chart for three more months, so I started the fourth month today.
Have a good weekend.
Carol

@retiredteacher Carol, you are doing so great. I am really impressed with how you are doing and how you have you have inspired others. I know you walk indoors, so I presume you are walking alone. I think for outdoor walkers it must be nice to have a companion. My sister and her husband walk pretty much daily, sometimes two times a day.
My whole family is amazed that I go to a gym! I was so overweight and out of shape for so long. It has certainly been a journey for me. I never really thought about the fact that exercising is probably what is helping me with my diabetes, but after reading many posts I am sure that it is. That helps to give me more incentive to keep it up.
