Is this journey to walk and feel great again always going to be easy? No! Is it a journey worth making? Without a doubt! Will there be days when it hurts a bit? Absolutely - especially in the beginning! We're 50Plus'ers, not 20 somethings. At our age a bit of hurty, achy comes with the territory. Stick with it though. It gets better each day. Will you have days where you just don't want to do it? Probably. Will you succeed if you give in to that too often? Probably not! Do listen to your body though and hear what it's telling you. Some days it will tell you that you need to take a break. So - take a break! That's OK. Just try and make sure your 'break' days don't outnumber your 'doin' it' days! Want more background info?
