Good girl or daft

Hi Julie...think its good you getting back in the gym....an american report says that exercise can help certain cancer patients....(helps their mind and their body to adjust to treatment)...i like you do the same when feeling a bit down....and i feel it helps me ...so keep it up for as long as you can...best wishes ..johnb..x

Hi Julie, exercising can be very uplifting.  Good to see you getting fit again you young thing!

I joined a gym last year, never having done anything like that before.  I really enjoyed it, especially the treadmill.  Unfortunately it triggered a condition in my foot called Plantar Fasciitis which can be excrucitatingly painful, so that is put on hold for the time being.

Keep up the good work.  I think you are being exceptionally good.

Hi,

I think what you are doing is great...not at all daft!! Its true exercise releases feel good hormones, uplifts mood, increases energy levels and even alleviate symptoms of fatigue. I think as long as your onc thinks its ok which I'm sure he does then go for it!! I joined the gym at the local leisure centre but tend to do the classes mainly. I go in the morning and it sorts me out for the day and I sleep a treat at night. I also feel really in control of something again which is very important to me at the mo. Good luck hun xxxx
