Hello, I am 64 years young with a slight challenge. I live with chronic pain due to degenerative osteoarthritis of the spine, lower back scoliosis, and 3total knee replacements (2nd replacement helped but didn't go as well as we'd hoped). As a result of this, the pain has accompanied me for the past 9years and has made it extremely difficult to walk( two city blocks is my limit before pain starts). I have learned to push past that on many levels, however, it is water aerobics that makes my body sing!!!! Due to the pandemic, I've been unable to go and am now acclimating myself to 2-3 short walks daily. I have to because my knee, thigh, lower back pain is increasing in ways I thought I'd never feel again. My body will not allow me to be sedentary for long. Sooo I am going to look online for some chair exercises to keep the blood flow going and the inflammation down as well. I need the water...I have become an advocate for the US Pain Foundation and am continually learning/sharing info to assist others. I have worked hard on changing my diet over the years, but it was Noom that kick-started me on my path to knowing I could and would hit my goal weight. Now that I am no longer a member of Noom, I need a tracker so I'm hoping I've found the right place. I work as an audiobook narrator/voiceover artist and coach for aspiring authors. This beautiful transition occurred after my disability and I had begun to heal. I also wrote a book about my experience. I am a Christian and am offended by offensive language and words that disrespect Christ! I love various genres of music and live to be outdoors...my style is really cramped now, but this too shall pass! Well, this was my night writing therapy, so congrats to all who are on this journey! You're here and that's a great thing! Grace, Peace, & Favor, L
