To start I wear earbuds and load up my nano with all my favorite songs. I use sneakers with gel inserts (dr. scholls). I use the treadmill so I can hang on and I hang on then let go, hang on, let go. Just to see if I'm steady. I do 45 minutes. Somedays I do really well and my head is ok. If the gym is really really busy then I can get a headache. I usually have one daily anyway so I workout anyway. It helps my sadness and I feel like I'm doing something for myself.

My Neuro said to walk everyday. I am going to be adding light weights this week and see how I do. I'm determined to lose the wt. I've gained resting for five months..lol

So yes I notice I'm happier and I feel like I'm able to do something for myself. This is very important to me.

Good luck. Let me know how it goes. The eliptical is nice too because there is no jarring. I was going to do that this week.
