You know, that really may be the way to go for me. I've always loved games and am competitive by nature but gave up computer and console games years ago as the last thing I needed was more things to do where I wasn't up and about. ;-) It's been a real challenge for me to find activities I can do, as I also have a number of chronic problems that are a real catch-22 for me...too much exercise often causes more pain for me, but when I don't exercise at all it just makes things worse. I've been through so much physical therapy and treatments that has done little to help, it's a frustrating situation to deal with. But now that I'm self-employed and have crappy health insurance (there's really no other kind when you are self-employed!) I really need to be more pro-active and find solutions that work for me on my own. This seems like a good time to get motivated again, I do like entering all my meals into FitDay as well, I often find I'm less likely as well to snack through the day if I know I'll have to add it to the list. ;-) > >Frankly anything that gets and keeps me moving is a good thing.
