Appreciate the kind words, Cyndi & Don.
If only I had logged on before I had breakfast this morning, I would have gotten strength from reading your posts and not have blown it - I had a doughnut! UGH! So, I'm off to the hills to "huff puff" in order to get rid of the it. Good grief!!

I have a bad knee also and am trying to avoid having it cleaned up. The best thing we can do is to get the weight off. I've strengthened it a lot by swimming & using a weight that works the quad. I've also noticed a difference in my waist - maybe the swimming is moving the weight around to the rear! Whatever, it feels slimmer so I'll take it!.....but, of course, not with a doughnut for breakfast!! .......huff puff huff puff!! - Michele
