Posted above, my year does sound more like an accomplishment than the utter drag I've thought of it as so far. Three 5Ks during radiation. What was I thinking?! They were fun.

on everyone here!!!! My biggest accomplishment ever is finding out that besides my cardio & strength workouts is flexibility & importance of stretching!! I started early this year & have added this to my routine almost day! Suffice to say I have increased flexibility & have less pain!! I can stretch now where I never thought I could before! I need to keep this going for life & I learned the importance not just helping improve my workouts but my whole life!!

Great thread...Everyone's accomplishments are so awesome and inspiring! Congrats to all.
Last year and this year have been very stressful due to DH major illness, and also lost my dog to cancer in the middle of taking care of DH's health issues...then got a new rambunctious puppy...and because of everything I was dealing with, I stopped exercising regularly, and felt myself spiralling out of control mentally and physically. I finally decided this summer that enough was enough, and I had to start taking better care of myself. I forced myself to start exercising. Daily. Even if I didn't feel like it. Even if I didn't have a lot of time. No excuses. I got a bunch of new workouts for inspiration, and finally got back to a place where I look forward to working out again. I could lose about 8 to 10 lbs, which I've been trying to get rid of for a couple years...and tightening up my eating will take care of that...but working out regularly has helped my stress levels immensely. I feel better physically, and mentally as well, because I'm doing something positive for myself. I'm super proud of myself for getting back on track. DH's health is still slowly declining, and every day is a new challenge, but working out is keeping me strong to be able to face what life has in store. Exercise is a powerful and wonderful thing.
