| About | My name is Liz and I've always been more comfortable indoors. Although I live down the shore, I'm not really a beach person, I don't usually go when everyone else does. I love to read and work on the computer. Now due to a sedintary lifestyle and some mental illness (depression and anxiety) I've gained much weight and cannot stand or walk for any significant amount of time/distance. I would like to be able to go walking again without a cane or walker (as I use to but more so). I can't bear to think that I have to live this way for the rest of my life as I'm only 53. I have some herniated discs in my lower back and have a hard time standing straight. Haven't seen an orthopedist since I discovered my difficulty walking and standing. Also, I think I have copd, and I quit smoking some time ago. For exercize I would be interested in swimming (indoors) and exersize machines. |
