Your doing great! Don't over do it in walking too much to fast. I remember first few months of walking my knees and ankles bothered me and sometimes I had to take a day off or rest them. As you become more active it is very important to make sure your vitamin D levels are normal so your body can absorb calcium. It is proven that Vitamin D helps control hunger and my weight loss VA doctor put me on them right away.

Thanks for the support & tips!!! Doctor has been monitoring my vitamin D for about 6 months & I'm OK now. All of you rock & help motivate me. On Saturday, it was sweltering hot, me & the dog were both spent & still had another 1/2 mile or so to get home & I felt you there. I kept telling myself, out loud; "You're almost there. They are pushing you up the mountain right now." I said it over & over. If anyone else but you climbers of mountains could have heard me they would have locked me up in a psych ward. I can imagine the 911 call call. Mad man, walking a dog; thinks he's climbing a mountain!!! He needs help!!! He's probably dangerous!!! Thank God I was on a lonely, backwoods road deep in southeast Georgia & my dog can't use a phone.

Joe, today is your day. Today you join this band of climbers of mountains. Today, you start building a better Joe. We are all going to the peak brother & we are leaving no one behind. As I describe myself all the time, this is time for New Joe to start chiseling out of Old Joe. Pack your gear brother. I know you can do this because I can do it. Therefore I know everybody can do it. Are you in?
