Trying to start a workout routine

As y'all might recall I have chronic back problems. So much so that I walk with a cane. And I take methadone for pain. Which of course brings terrible side effects. I'm not a candidate for surgery so unless I do something about it myself I'm not going to improve.

So I've decided that I'm gonna start working out. Very slowly at first but maybe if I can strengthen my body, and especially my abs then maybe it'll help my back. My back problems became severe after 2 hernia operations and my kidney cancer. Within a span of 2 years they had cut into my abdominal wall 3 times so I'm sure it's extremely weak. And if you're abs are weak it only stands to reason that it's going to affect my back.

I know I'm not going to be able to cure myself but if I can at least lessen the pain it'll be worth it. Maybe I can actually get to where I can walk w/o the use of a cane.

So wish me luck. I know it's going to be painful but I simply cannot continue to live the way I have been. This methadone is slowly killing me and it's obvious that something needs to be done.

so, until next time.....bye!!!
