ambtreh's Journal, 09 April 2012

When I had started exercising over a month back, I had decided to exercise at least 5 minutes each day. The idea was that it would get me moving, make it easier for me to be active, and help me build exercise into a habit. Then, I can gradually increase the amount of exercise I do by 5 minutes.

The 5 measly minutes have helped a lot. I never thought I would itch to be active now. Being handicapped, I am scared of being too active without someone there (I live alone) but now I like being active. Shocked me when I realized that.

Yesterday was the first day when I continuously exercised for 10 minutes. I understand that it may not be that big a deal because I see people exercise for hours each day. But it is a bit of a milestone for me. I do hope that I can continue with it. And maybe, just maybe, my vision of being able to walk continuously for 1 hour isn't that far off. (A girl can dream, can't she?)

Cheers!!!

Congrats.....it doesn't matter how small a change you make or what everyone else is doing...what matters is that you do it...at your own pace...and you see the benefit and keep going. Keep dreaming!
