I have become a couch potato and it is showing. I always walk my dog every morning but it only winds up being for about 15 minutes max. Not enough to help me lose weight. Just 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed as having mild arthritis in my lower back and hips and a major factor in that was gaining so much weight and not exercising enough. I eat fairly well, not a ton of calories or fat is in my diet, in fact I eat a lot of unfried foods and alot of veggies and fruit but it’s the kickin back on my couch that is packing on the pounds for me. I don’t have enough income to get to a gym and buy a gym membership. I have 560 square feet of living space and a couple of 2 lbs free weights and a hand gripper. Is there anything I could use around my house or anything free that I can pick up and use to help me with exercising? Also any ideas or tips for getting motivated would be greatly appreciated. I also find it hard during those certain times of the month.
