I'm so excited! The senior & disabled apartment where I live just sent all residents a notice that beginning June 1st they are starting a Let's Get Healthy Walkathon. They will supply us a pedometer, pen, paper, & tracker sheet to monitor our progress. This will give me a great incentive to start walking & getting in better shape BEFORE surgery, and for sure the motivation to continue post-surgery. What a great gift for all the residents. I just wanted to share my happy little NSV pre- and post-surgery with my Ameri Bari friends!

I love everything about this idea. I also love how excited you are about getting active. You're going to do great post surgery! My MIL lives in an apartment building for the elderly, many of whom have health issues. They have many great programs to keep them engaged and socialized but nothing like this. I am going to suggest it to the manager.
Yes this is so great on many levels. We can walk with friends or on our own without following any particular group schedule. My bf/fiance is recovering slowly from a series of seizures that left him unable to walk independently. Thru pt he is slowly regaining some mobility, and this program will be a good tool for both of us to track our progress. And yes I am feeling so motivated by y'all on these threads to get started on the right track on my journey to better health. I hope your MIL can be a part of a similar program.
