Hi Annie, I hear you - motivation is a real kicker. I find that having an exercise / walk partner and meeting at a specified day/time works for me.

@normaf Welcome to Mayo Connect! I see this is your first post with us, and we welcome you aboard.

You're right, accountability to someone else can be quite a motivator to keep you doing something. Do you have arthritis? How does it affect your everyday life? I have osteoarthritis in hands and knees, which makes it sometimes painful moving around.

Tell us about your exercise program, and your exercise/walk partner, please!
Ginger
