Happy Weekend!! 🌷😊 I'm wonderin how many of us woke up hurtin with back pain this morning (like me😣)? It can be so frustrating to want to get 'fit' when we can barely get around the house! I found these simple weight bearing exercises & tips that I'm gonna start to incorporate into my daily routine. I think I'll screen shot the first graphic and use it for my laptop screen saver and every time I pass by the screen, I'll choose one of the exercises to do 10 reps. It's not much, but I'm hopin that if I'm consistent, I will start to feel a difference. At my age, with all my chronic disease, I need to find ways to 'move' more (safely) throughout the day. Maybe this will help..... At any rate, it's interesting information, right? 🤷♀️😎 🌷💙🌷

@Kenna...oh, I wish it was only L4-L5 issues...but my spine is fusing itself from my neck to my sacrum (PsA, Spondylitis, DDD, etc) I've broken my tailbone at least twice (I'm an overachiever🤷♀️) with osteopenia/osteoporosis (different sites) leading to mobility/gait problems. I've been focusing on losing the extra weight and strengthening my core muscles for over a year now kuz I know how important that is! I am SUPER thankful to still be ambulatory though and I have my walker, trekking poles & scooters to fall back on (so to speak...) Life is good and I have MUCH to be grateful for!! 🌷🌞🌷

@CrystalJo You're amongst friends, whine away ;) Honestly, we all have our days and struggles here. I haven't been here very long but I can already see that others here understand an are genuinely empathetic. Yes, heating pad and maybe Ibuprofen if your stomach can tolerate it. Sending a hug to you as well :)

I do not know what to say - everyone already said everything - those are good exercises that I will also try to incorporate in some way - even one would be good because I do not exercise - at all. You have encouraged me to try - I am sorry to hear that you are in pain - of all of the people on FS - I dislike having to think about you in pain - You are such a positive and encouraging supportive individual to so many people - and Yes you are - you touch so many others with such gentle and caring words each day - I wish that all of your pain would stop Crystal Jo. I really do!

CrystalJo, hope you are pain-free today. I have RA and know what it’s like to live with varying levels of pain each day. Rest confidently in the knowledge that your remarkable weight loss contributes to the best health possible. May God bless you today🙏🏻😇
