I kept meaning to do some exercise while doing this LC/HF diet, but just didn't feel up to it till I had lost over 80 lbs. And I decided that's OK.

But lately I started feeling my bones under my skin, and that didn't feel OK! Since I just don't have the money to join a gym - I decided to try mall walking - because it's free!

It's been just over a week now, and I have gone every day - usually after work, or after grocery shopping on the weekends. It takes me about 1/2 hour at a brisk pace to walk the mall. As I got faster, I found some stairs, and started climbing them too.

There were 4 flights of stairs near the gym, people look at me when I get to the bottom step (where the gym is), and turn around to go back up!

The other day I found 6.5 flights to the executive offices. When I get to the top, I can barely breathe, and wonder how long it would be before they found me if I had a heart attack right there! LOL

I am wearing a Misfit step counter, and still don't met my goal of 10,000 most days. I am also using a MapMyWalk app on my phone.

Anyone want to join me (virtually) mall walking, checking in to see how we are doing?
