TuDiabetes - A Community for People Touched by Diabetes

I was watching a clip from I believe Good Morning America today here online (I don't watch morning TV - sigh - no time) and came across this interesting bit of info about the benefits of walking - which is something I've always loved to do (my parents would have wished bungee cords were available in the days I was a toddler).

I love to walk - and the benefits of walking in my opinion outweigh some of the fancy schmancy ways of getting exercise - less expensive, can be done anywhere (going up/down your own stairs in your house if you aren't up to going outside), plus the benefits of good health are great!

If you have a few minutes - check out my blog - and I'd love to especially hear anyones comments on what my medical teams have said over the years of my having "firm" flesh - I'd love to know if anyone else who is long term like myself - that was given the same comment about their skin. This is nothing kinky - so don't be worried - remember - I am only a little baby ....

Hey, I read your actual blog and don't know anything about firm flesh, but I do LOVE to walk. It's the easiest and most relaxing exercise that doesn't feel like exercise. Good for blood sugar control too.
