It seems like a lot of jobs nowadays require lots of sitting at computers, the latter of which is destroying our vision. Meir Schneider, who through updating the Bates Method, was able to go from being legally blind to having 20/60 vision often talks about the need to move.

TAPS

337 needs to shape up, literally and figuratively! And I know of a good way for you to get up and walk: Get a doggie - but not a lap dog!

Re: Forgot to Mention

Not all are physically able to exercise.

Great looking family there! It takes a fixed mindset and the ability to deal with pain, if necessary, for some of us to exercise consistently. Not easy. I know. And then there are these things called sweets... LOL!

O, dearie me, TAPS, I've been reading and thinking about the same

stuff, how the sedentary style will shape us, slow us, make us less than we could be. But I get so tired so quickly. I need to resist the urge to sit, but so far I haven't found a reward or treat that will make me do it. Too bad I can't just decide and do more. And I do NOT want a Fitbit for my birthday, in case the kids are listening.

They didn't mention leg and knee problems from not making enough use of them. I am trying to be more active, but then the lower back, the sciatica, and now the knee wonkies kick in if I do very much. So--I have to move more, but cautiously.

I get a lot of walking in on the days I go treasure hunting... shopping, that is.

337 337 337 337. Could you organise a large bottom contest. All can wear clothes of course. No instant slimming allowed.
