Just got back from a half mile jog. My dog behaved well, which helped! She's about 8 y/o (a Humane Society refugee!) and needs basic obedience reinforcement. I didn't spend much energy training her when we got her as a puppy in '04. My Multiple Sclerosis saw to that.

Thanks to some healthy living (and a few good meds!), I'm able to jog and exercise now and want to spread the enthusiasm. I lost access to my old exercise group and weight-loss group (of over 8 years) and I really miss them! I need the accountability.

So ~ if there's enough interest here we can start setting goals for ourselves and keeping track. In the meantime just tell us what you do, or have done, to exercise and/or lose or maintain your weight.

I slowly jogged a half mile today! That's up from my usual 4/10ths because of the cool temp and it just felt good. I need to get back into an indoor exercise routine that involves this big purple ball that has sat blocking my view of the bird feeders for a month.

What did you do? Do you have plans to keep doing it?
