Oy, exercise is my downfall. I hate to admit that I am all talk and no action. I have hip and knee pain from Femara and know that exercise can only help, but I still have not made it part of my daily plan. I really need to do something because my legs and arms lack muscle tone. I plan to start out slowly by walking during my lunch break at work. I work in a big building and can walk laps around the inside. If anyone knows any good arm exercises to get rid of "the wave" please share.
Great to hear from you Brenda. Hope you are doing well.
