If you push yourself too hard in the beginning you will just give up. What I have done in the past is write down a few goals for the week and then reward yourself with something that helps you reach your goal. For example, a couple of goals can be... 1. Do 10 squats a day, 2. drink plenty of water 3. walk for 10 minutes every day, challenging yourself 4. Include vegetables in every meal and 5. take a daily vitamin. Then at the end of the week reward yourself. My love is shopping, so I would buy a new outfit that makes me feel good, or maybe gym clothes. Choose whatever makes you happy. Each week make your goals a little more difficult and eventually you will see lots of improvement and a increase in energy. Good Luck! Kayleen,

I have been leading a very sedentary lifestyle for quite a few years. It started from an anxiety disorder which lead me to become disabled. I am on meds and the meds make me so tired....I really don't do too much at all and now it has really caught up with me....my heart now races when I reallly try to do anything....I know it's from sitting around..but where do I safely start? I cleaned my room today and my heart was racing sat down a few times and I am just exhausted. I have talked to my doctor and he said go for a walk....but I don't leave my hoouse. Before my panic and anxiety I was active and and very outgoing, not anymore suggestions greatly appreciated Kayleen Excellent post…..but I have a question.

Researchers say that a sedentary lifestyle causes more deaths than smoking, worldwide. We'd better take it serious. Thanks for your kind comments.
