My body was so sore this morning, i took some ibuprofen starting to feel better now.

Be very careful of the Ibuprofen route. A couple of years back I used it to mask the pain of an injury picked up whilst cross country running. I built up to 8 tablets a day within 4 weeks and never got a twinge - but when I came off it I'd done so much injury to the foot that it was months before I could exercise again. Even now, nearly 3 years later I can't trust the ankle joint and I still get pain whenever the weather is damp.

Vitamins C & E in the 400 mcg dosage are great before and after a workout. They help release the lactic acid build up in the muscle tissue that causes the soreness. It takes about a week to notice results but it does help.

I appreciate the advice, i didn't mention i have this sciatica nerve that is messing up on me. I used to be a CNA and screwed back up some by lifting too many patients. But I think that pain will lessen if i keep it up like ya said. I think doing the leg lifts while lying on back, was what bugged it probably, not the walking.

Wow I am impressed!! You do all that? And to think I am having a very hard time just trying to climb stairs.

LOL I will try again tomorrow i hope. I know you guys are all trying hard at exercising and so so am i. Thanks for encouragement from all.

Whatever it is that you choose to do, never do so much that it leaves you so sore that you won't work out the next day. I agree that SLOW & STEADY is the way to go. Before you know it, it will be routine for you to do these things each day.

Start with just one set (15-20) reps of your chosen exercise.
Plus, it's easier to work out a body part each day instead of trying to do all around exercise each day. Abs/legs one day, arms/upper body the next -- or break those four up into individual days. Make sure also that 3x week you get 20 minutes of cardio (walk, jog, run whatever). Your body will love you for it.

Use your small arm weights while watching TV.
Do full knee bends when you pick up the laundry your husband and kids leave all over the place.
Stretch every night before bedtime and do a few situps -- it really helps with water weight during those times (know what I mean) and you'll sleep so much better.

My body was so sore this morning, i took some ibuprofen starting to feel better now. My back and legs and tushie hurt! I am thinking maybe i better not walk today, i don't want to hurt tomorrow. How can walking just a mile make me hurt so bad?

Lori Ann: We lived in Sichuan province, often referred to as Shezuhan here. They eat a lot of pork, dumplings and noodles. The food is generally spicey and always oily. Most dishes swim in red chile oil. Unfortunately, I loved it. Yes, one of the few foreigners to gain weight while living in China. The other problem was that we lived in a 5 Star hotel with a play kitchen so we ate out almost every meal. WE drank a lot of beer too, which didn't help. Diet and lifestyle changed a lot when we moved back!

Qvaria, you just took the most important step. You started! That's half the battle there. The other half is to keep it up; make it a daily habit. Once you do that, the rest just comes. Take it slow and easy at first. Build up gradually to a point that gives you your daily hour.

I look back at my history of exercise and wonder sometimes how I ever let it drop; and why we most often do not realize the absolute necessity of exercise as a way of life.

Good for you! Keep it up!

I'm always so exicited when people start an exercise program. Let me tell you my story and maybe it will help you. On July 4,1999 we moved back from China. We had been there for over two years. During that time I gained more than 20 pounds and picked up a pack a day smoking habit. When I got on the plane in China I threw away my cigarettes and decided that with my new life in the US, I would be smoke free. The 20 pounds I had gained weren't so easy to deal with. I decided I would have to start running. The first times I went out I could barely go half a block. So I would do that half block then walk a couple, then try running another half. I would do this for about 20 minutes. I kept building on what I was doing. The more I ran, the more I enjoyed it. Winter came, I kept going. Twenty three months later I ran my first marathon. It took me 4:49 to do it but the time was meaningless compared to the accomplishment. Did I lose the 20 pounds. No, didn't happen. I lost some, gained some, lost some. You know the routine. But my point is that physical fitness is something you have to build slowly and methodically over time. And to make yourself really successful you have to eat right. You can be fit and still carry lots of extra weight.

Good luck. Hang in there. Being fit is one of the greatest feelings in the world. Being fit and thin is simply over the top!
