What a vlog Lynn. I worked in the NHS for 32 years and the best advice is from patients who have experienced these health problems. They know what it feels like to live with these issues and how it effects their physical and mental health. You may not realise it but through the way that you have presented this vlog, there are people who are suffering the symptoms you had and are now thinking about seeking help. You explained the treatment in such a way that it took the fear of the unknown out of equation. Well done and so many thanks for sharing xx

Oh Lynn, I feel awful as I mentioned recently mid August 2024 about you showing your legs more as they looked great, and I have only just watched this vlog to hear about your health problems some months ago. I will look at the follow up to see how you got on with the treatment and the treadmill, and also the garage declutter! You mentioned your mother having dementia but still remembering the tapping of the dance beat. Sad but bringing a smile. I remember my mother was the same, and before she lost recognition of me and my daughter and was bedridden, whenever my daughter visited her from university, she would reach for her handbag (not there) to give her some money. She had always done that when she saw her as a child and teenager. We both have smiled at that memory, not sad but somewhat amusing as you remember your memory. Continue to make us smile as you do it so well.

Oh my goodness Lynn, what a time you’ve had of it! I’m slowly catching up with all your video’s, I was in the US for eight months, so never seen a lot of them. You are so very lucky that you were able to get all this sorted out! You’ve done really well on your weight loss/health plan. I used to go walking up the hills where I stay, I also hiked up Ben Nevis with my sister for charity. It’s great! It makes you feel alive and healthy, not only in the body but in the mind as well. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’re doing marvellously well. Dementia is a terrible disease, both my aunts had it before they died, it’s very sad seeing them with this, when you think what they were like before the dementia, so sad 😢 You must’ve been heartbroken seeing your mum with this, even although she was 92, it’s still your mum and nobody should have to go through that. I also used to smoke and gave up, the best thing I ever did. Not only for my health but for my bank balance too! 😂 Anyway Lynn, well done again, I wish you a very long and happy life. ❤

What a fantastic honest video. I have gained 10 kg since retiring. Used to walk about 7 to 10 kilometres a day. Stopped smoking too. I will also try the walking. Lynn you’ve probably just inspired hundreds of people. Thanks for sharing your life experiences. Take care.

I’m 76 and live in Toronto Canada. I walk most days. If it’s snowing I do the treadmill. I really enjoy your vlogs. Keep them coming Lynn. You have quickly become a favourite. And you’re very professional already, even though you just started. I’m originally from England and it’s like being over home listening to your accent. Keep up the walking…💃🏻

Lynn, what a fantastic vlog, now I'm 69 I retired 2 maths ago, I was a cleaner in a shopping centre, I walked 10 klms over 5 hr shifts 5 days a week, now I'm retirered, not much walking, I've gained 10kg, omg!! So yes walking keeps the weight off and keeps you fit, I might join you on yr quest, I'll do it too, I will start tomorrow, go us!! Mor please

Oh Lynn I know how you feel. This March just gone I had a heart attack I am same age as you but i was fit, I ran three days a week and did strength training twice a week. (I have my own gym in the garden) It came as a shock to everyone who knows me. Hence the bruising with the meds. I was studying to be a personal trainer too but have put that on hold. I walk now briskly two miles every day with view to return to running as soon as i am able. I have a treadmill and i use it when it is raining outside. I reckon you will lose some weight and the changes you are making to your diet will help a lot ,diets are fad things, it is changing just one or two things when you feel you can that makes it a lifestyle change and you will stick to it more easily. Good luck and if you need any advice i am here x I know you said you hate gyms and i am the same but strength training is using little weights to help challenge your muscles and turn the fat into muscle, you can use them on the treadmill as you walk. I bet you feel marvellous in no time and it was that feeling that was and still is my motivation.

What a lovely video Lynn, you certainly have been through it and yet you keep smiling. I have a treadmill used to use it quite a lot but at 89 my days with the treadmill are over. I am not too good with my balance and have always been afraid of falling over so I now walk with a stick.❤️❤️❤️

Hi Lynn excersise will work. I listened to all your video very interesting. I'm 75yrs next month didn't know l had a blocked artery 98% blocked in my main artery. Had a stent put in. Thank God they found it back in March. I did 8wks of rehabilitation at a hospital. It was fantastic much like a gym. Now I'm still continuing to go once a week for the gym. Loving it. I lost 5kgs in that time Down to 62kgs walking will help. I was so interested in what you said about your legs, mine ache as well. Thanks heaps Lynn love your videos ❤❤

Hi Lynn, very good video. I just love listening to you, your voice is soothing. Very informative info on your leg situation.

Hi I walk everyday if I can , when you get into a routine you can’t do without walking , it has a lot of good effects ,the fresh air, and excersise does you good , lifts your mood and I always feel better after. So keep walking you will feel the benefits , yeah always try to watch what I eat too,but it’s hard when you like baking ect good luck

My ex-husband had intermittent claudication which meant he could only walk so far an he would have to stop, then he could walk again for a bit an then would have to stop. He went in for an operation to but stents in his legs but on opening him up they found his aorta was completely blocked an was crumbling as they touched it, they had to replace the aorta with what looks like an old fashioned telephone wire they had to run it down his left side. He was marvellous after the operation could return to work. So glad every is good with you now love your vlogs x

great vlog Lynn, this growing old malarkey isn't for the faint hearted, just turned 61 iv already had a stroke, cataracts and diabetes, I tried walking more often but i live in Sheffield and round every corner is a hill which seems like a mountain to me, but we wont be beaten, My love was ballroom and Latin dancing from being a little girl ,I hope we can all get a bit healthier with more exercise, look forward to your update

Thank you Lynn for being so open and honest. Didn’t know arteries in all parts of the body could become blocked, thought it was just ones around the heart. I start off thinking of walking every day but the weather and laziness gets in the way. My husband got rid of the treadmill for a static exercise bike, which I find uncomfortable. Im liable to fall over these days, my balance is not good, puts me off walking around where i live as the pavement is uneven. Years ago i used to leave early for work, stopping off at the shopping mall. It’s was great, smooth surface and no worries if it was cold or wet.

Thank you for sharing your story with us, Lynn. Walking is great exercise! Thanks for inspiring us!

Hi Lynn, 👋 what a lovely interesting video, thoroughly enjoyed listening to your story, thank you for sharing with us. You have such a lovely calming voice, I'm glad you're getting alot better and got yourself a treadmill, good for you😊 I also don't like going to the gym, I like to walk but it's way too hot in my country to go for walks, I miss the UK for this reason, great country side, green hills, lakes beautiful scenery and the fresh winds 😅 rain, I don't mind any of that, I love it,😀 so a treadmill would be a good idea, I think I will give it a go, you have inspired me 😜 I can I just say you look fabulous for your age, you don't look anywhere near 68 😮

Hiya Lynn, you're a joy to listen to whatever the topic, thanks for sharing what's been going on with you and for the inspiration to get walking more. You're doing great with your walking goals and you look fabulous, keep going❤ I used to be in a couple of walking groups, did yoga and Zumba but I've been a full time carer for my 92 yr old dad for the last seven years ( he lives with us)and between that, a dodgy back and the world going upside down the last few yrs with the pandemic I've been in hibernation mode and become a bit of a feral recluse🤭 I'm trying to get fitter and get moving more, it's now or never. Husband was diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis Feb this yr so we're both looking to try to keep as well as we can moving forward. We both turned 60 this year. Ok I've rambled on enough for now, if you've not fallen asleep reading this, have a great rest of the week lovely. x🥰🍂

Hi Lynn, really really love your chats and getting to know you more. I feel its like chatting to a dear friend. Looking forward to your future vlogs xx

Best of luck on your goals! I turned 70 this week. We have to keep moving~I have been "active" all my life and I think it makes a difference!! God Bless you!

Thank for sharing, lovely lady. Enjoy your Treadmill 😃👍

Loving your channel. I’m a Walker, 68, I used be a real gym bunny but Covid changed everything and then health issues meant I was uncomfortable going back to the gym. I do walk outdoors but mostly I walk around my house. Up and down the stairs, Through the lounge around the kitchen and I walk a minimum of 10,000 steps every day. That’s about 90 minutes every day, In chunks of a few thousand steps starting when I get up in a morning. I just want to tell folks that You do not need a treadmill. Good luck with the vascular issues, lots of people struggle to understand why they need to do something that is so painful. The benefits of walking through the pain barrier are worth it.

Hi Lynn. Thank you for your story. I have Polymyalgia which gives me pain in my legs and I agree it does change your life. 😢. Well done for getting your treadmill and I admire your efforts. Looking forward to the garage clearout video. As I’ve said before you’re a breath of fresh air. Keep going. 👏👏👏

Thank you Lynn. Be encouraged - weight control is very possible with regular exercise. I walk and do light workouts daily at home. I've never been interested in the gym scene. I related to your comments on that. Not dieting is wise. Baking, sharing what you bake and making healthy diet choices can go together: I've achieved results (10 kgs dropped slowly) with a "little-by-little, bit-by-bit" approach and that's what makes a good habit stick. All the best to you.🥀🌺🌻(Liked the music on your vlog!)

Hi 👋 lynn what a great video so much information on your illness thanks for sharing that with us 😊

Well Lynn, what a lovely honest video, thank you. Of course I am so very sorry to hear what has been going on for you but so very pleased that you have been listened to and that you have/are receiving the treatment that you need. I also don't like gyms, but each to their own. I live in a village in the south of England but have to say I haven't had to think about my safety so do walking on a daily basis. We have our bikes in Suffolk so do at least three reasonably long bike rides a week, stopping at a pub of course for lunch, it would be rude not to 😂. I have cut out the snacking, I think I started again because of having the grandkids. Anyway all is going in the right direction. I use light weights for side and front arm lights plus for sit ups. I do stretching which is advised and do aerobics with a dvd when I feel like it. Health is the number one thing for me so I just do what I can when I can and don't beat myself up about it, life's too short. Good luck with everything 👍, know you've got this. Can't wait for the clearing out of the garage. I'm the clear out queen 🤣😜😂 Brian always says he's going to hire me out. Take great care Lynn, wishing you all the luck in the world with your health and fitness ❤x

Great video well done, you seem really determined. I am afraid I don't walk a lot either, arthritis is my problem I have had one total knee replacement and the other is bad. You've motivated me to get on my static bike and follow your daily 20 minutes on that, thanks for the inspiration xxx

Lynn Love you even more . Sat here with a glass of red and loved to hear your story . My best friend had the same condition as you with her leg/s. She couldn’t do any walking and your right it stops you living your life. Glad you are getting it sorted . My friend had other health issues and she sadly died in May . Please look after yourself and keep walking ok . Love listening to you and feel it’s like listening to a friend . Ps Made the lemon drizzle cake and it was lovely xx take care xx

Hi Lynn, what a helpful and informative video. The previous one with the make up was fabulous and you did a really good job. You looked like a film star today!! I was deeply engrossed in your health chat when a man’s voice cut across my earphones and asked if I was available to take a call. Well that’s a new one on me!!!! Something I have never experienced before😅 well done for speaking out about your condition, I am sure it will spur a lot of ladies on to walk or exercise a little more. I don’t walk but have lost two stone since Easter. As a result my bp is much better so I guess that’s a positive. Good luck with your treadmill endeavours

Thank you so much for telling us about yourself. I’m 69 and thinking about doing the carnivore diet. I’ve read such wonderful things about it. But I just don’t know. It’s the starting of things that’s so hard. Don’t you think? And by the way, you look great for your age!! So pretty! Loved this video!!

Hi lynn,thankyou for sharing your story with us,so glad you found out about your condition and are now getting on top of it,😊❤

Love your videos Lynn. It’s like catching up with a friend xx

An encouraging video Lyn, good you solved the problem of the treadmill. I’m looking forward to seeing the garage clear out as its top of my list too and I know it will inspire me. Good luck with your walking.

Oh Lynn your such a tonic can you just come on Everyday please 😂 it really is like having your friend round for go chat . Honestly enjoy listening to you and your accent , and certain looks you give to the camera ..” so I thought about getting a treadmill hmm “ and you look at camera , it’s that knowing look hmm , just brilliant. Looking for to your next uploads…don’t mind what they are lol you’d be great at reading stories or even better remember agony aunt letters they use to do ( maybe they still do I don’t know …now that’s food for thought eh lol . Keep up your treadmill and good on ya … take care 🌻 xx

Thank you Lyn. Have recently found you and think your channel is s great. What a heartfelt vlog. Hope you've had results in with the walking or another stent put in.

Thanks Lynne, even though it had serious content, you still made me smile when talking about dancing with your good leg. I hope they can sort out your other leg very soon. Good luck with your 20 minute a day walking challenge xx

So lovely of you to share some of your health issues and explain how you are trying to resolve them and help yourself. You are really interesting and motivating others. I suffer with many health issues myself and it’s hard to motivate ourselves and keep moving but I try daily to keep busy, keep up with my interests and travel a lot. There are many free yoga classes on KZfaq. I follow an excellent one. Yoga does make a difference and I try to practise it regularly when my health doesn’t prevent me. See you soon. xx 😀

I'm so sorry you had these health problems but it looks like you are doing everything to make your life better. I really enjoyed listening as you have a lovely calm voice. I would love more stories please xx

Lynn, I could listen to you all night and your facial expressions make me smile. Like a few comments you have a lovely calming voice. Interesting about you legs, I have the same problem but never been checked for blocked arteries but them maybe I haven’t explained how bad I am to the doctor, be worth letting him/her know if I need to go for something else, or I might just make an appointment to see what they say. I have osteoarthritis and currently trying to lose weight to get to the correct BMI that my surgeon will accept to be put on the waiting list.I will be 72 on 10 September and I never retired until 4 years ago from NHS where I could clock up 12000 steps no problem in work. You have just given me the push I need to get off my bum and do something about it. You look much much younger than your age, congrats on reaching over 2000 ❤ Lynn, I got an appointment with doc today, 29th Aug. Got bloods taken and she has requested an appointment for an ECG, I will let you know how I get on xxx

Loved this vlog. You are so natural. Watched you a couple of times and this one was a decider. I am not subscribed to many but here we go. You're on my short list. Smoked over fifty years and now stopped ten tears next month. Haven't missed it for one day. Don't know where the saved money has gone though.

I walk my dog an hour a day but can’t say it’s helped with weight loss but keeps me fit at 70. I love a trier and your def one of those. Good luck with your treadmill. I’ve subscribed today 👍

Hi Lynn from Australian 👋 side effect of baking...love it! I so enjoy your vlog & you make me feel yr talking to me. 65 yrs & starting to walk again for my health & if i can loose weight all the better as belly fat for me equals impared insulin & i dont want to take medication. Lifestyle change a much better option & you will feel the benefit of your 20min treadmill walk in no time im sure👏👏👏

Hi Lynn, thanks for sharing your health problems and I hope things get sorted with your right leg soon…..you’ll be jiving again before you know it🥰. I think you’ll see a definite difference in a month when you take your measurements, walking is really good for you and the idea of the treadmill is the perfect way to get fit. I’m with you regards diets, I’ve tried everyone going and haven’t managed to stick to any of them for long so now I just try to watch my portions and choose healthier options when I’m able…….biscuits and cakes are my downfall🥴

Good luck with your next procedure.

Aww massive love to uou Lynn in the last 2 years I lost 3and half stone walking I went on treadmill everyday also walking with my husband made me feel so much better plus changed some health issues I had well done beautiful ❤

Thank you Lynn. Really interesting video. I’m sure you’ll feel better for using your treadmill every day and I hope something can be done about your leg. You’re such a positive person x

Hi Lynne, I just love you. Have really enjoyed your vlog. Can’t wait to see your journey. Please keep them coming. Thank you. Xx

Lovely lynn, I'm sat on the bed watching your vlog, and oh how you make me laugh. Even though it's been 9weeks since I fell down stairs and broke my back I am only allowed to walk if I wear this special brace (till October)😣 I too love to dance and miss doing a bogyy in the kitchen to the radio😂💃💃 so so it is with a keen interest to join you as soon as I can in getting fit and moving around better. As they say " use it or lose it " and that I think is very true as I watch other friends slow up with mobility issues as they get older and they were always fitted than me😏 I too hate diets but love the cake😂was however glad of the few extra pounds I was carrying at the time of the fall as I lost 16 pounds after 3 weeks stay in hospital. Every cloud has a silver lining🙄 keep on entertaining us and stay positive.

Hi Lynn I've been enjoying your videos and you're a breath of fresh air. I'm 65 and suffer with fibro myalgia and arthritis especially my knees and as I'm overweight it wasn't helping. I borrowed my brothers treadmill but it was too monotonous for me lol as I prefer outdoors so in Jan I got myself a fitbit and started walking for 30 min a day and so far I've managed to lose just over a stone but it's more the inches that I've lost and my shape is more defined now. I can't believe how much its helped with my stamina and overall health. I wish you well on your journey and look forward to seeing your future vlogs...onwards and upwards ❤

Congratulations, you’ve passed 2000 subscribers, well done 👍 I’m not surprised though 😊 I love your vlogs, you come across as such a nice person and I have no doubt you’re a bit of craic to be around too 😂 thank you for sharing your story with us, I hope you get your right leg sorted soo. 🤞🤞all the best, Fiona 💕💕

Very honest and interesting Lynn. Funny you should talk about a treadmill! I just ordered one,we live in a small retirement flat, so I had to buy a a smaller , folding one. I need to walk more. A few weeks ago, I(I’m also 67), I was diagnosed with quite a rare brain condition, so I have to exercise gently, so my blood pressure doesn’t spike 😳I can’t walk far where we live,it’s sooo hilly, so that’s out🤣, hence the treadmill😃 Good luck with your exercising and 🫰🏻for getting your leg done.

Another crackin video Lynn, thanks for sharing your health issues, and it’s nice to hear that you have a pain free left leg now, and also the advice you were given about walking will also help your right leg, you’ll be boppin in no time! 😁. Can’t wait for the garage vid. Mines not a garage either, it’s a storage dump, full of rubbish mainly, a nightmare, so I’m looking for inspiration!! Anyway, thanks again, bye for now, love Sandra. X

I love listening to you my darling your so true and down to earth, its like your just talking to me in my frontroom. Xxx❤😊

I have just finished cancer treatment so I try to go out for a walk everyday but it's a struggle! Thinking I'll get an exercise bike! Keep walking! ❤

Hi Lynn. I couldn’t believe when you said you were 68 you look amazing for your age I thought you were in your early fifties. I suffer with back problems and I walk most days it definitely helps and so does swimming I love swimming. I wish I had a treadmill as I don’t like walking in the rain and that’s hard living in Scotland as it rains a lot 😂. You’re a joy to listen to whatever the subject and you’ve done so well with your walking. I love to bake too but then I eat it. I’m lucky I’m not overweight but I try and stick to eating healthy 80% of the time and 20% of the time I eat cake 😂. I hate diets and think as long as you’re sensible you’re fine. I could listen to you all day. You’re such a lovely lady and I hope you do a q and a. Have a lovely week 🥰💕

Lovely to hear your blog, good luck on the treadmill! I've enjoyed your try on and cooking blogs, could listen to you for ages as you have a good sense of humour.💖💖

In my area we have 'Move it or Lose it' exercise classes for over 60s. They're a combo of some seated and some standing routines. Great fun. I'd say we are mostly late 60s to early 80s with a variety of age related health issues! My ma in law had intermittent claudication back in the day. Unfortunately she passed away from cancer (unrelated) before she was able to have the procedure she needed. It did indeed restrict her life and she was VERY resistant to using a wheelchair!

Congratulations on over 2000 subscribers in such a short time. Very interesting vlog. I hate gym’s as well . I have problems with my neck , shoulders and arms after 2 falls had them injected but didn’t work . My doctor said to try Tia Chi, it’s harder than it looks but has definitely made an improvement once you get into it. I’m 66 and my friend is 70 we are the youngest in the class 😂 . It definitely helps your balance and strengthens your muscles. I will be interested to see your results in 4 weeks time good luck. Xx

Hello, Lynn! Beautiful video! Thank you so much for sharing your story :-) I just added it to my playlist about Health :) Your information about your experience with this disease will probably help many people :) Just subbed your channel and I look forward to watching more of your videos :) May the Lord be with you, Rachel in Nashville, TN, USA :) 🎨👩‍🎨🛐📙☦️🐪🐪

Hi Lynne, keep going on the treadmill .I am sure it will benefit you .xx

Hi Lynn, have just discovered your channel & enjoyed this video. Walking is a brilliant way to improve your fitness & stamina. I am a 60+ lady & broke my leg at the end of January. After lots of physio I am building up my steps each week. I started a KZfaq channel (Mrs R's Journal) just before I had my accident & I post a healthy eating & fitness plan update video each week which really helps me stay on track. Fingers crossed you get your other leg done & get back to doing some dancing xx

So interesting Lynn take care hope it turns out well

That’s a great Vlog really enjoyed it. I’m chuffed to bits to see you have 2k followers x

Hi Lynn, I'm almost 64 and have fibromyalgia. I walk the dog for about 20 mins twice a day (pain permitting!). Cold wet weather makes me worse, I should move to the Med!!! Like you I love dancing, used to do tap but love a boogie, me and hubby dance till the early hours when we're on a cruise but couldn't do it at home!!! I'd love to lose weight but its so hard when you love all the naughty stuff!!!! Fingers crossed you get your right leg fixed xx (PS Has anyone said you look like Fern Britten)

Hi Lynn I love your videos. I’m interested to see your treadmill. Sorry you’ve had all of your troubles. Thank you for sharing.❤❣️🥰

Hi Lynn, you are such a lovely warm friendly person, I really enjoy your vlogs. I have just started investigations into what sounds like a similar issue with my legs. Keep up the fab chats and insights to your life. Thank you 😊

Sadly I can’t walk much now I have club feet and very bad arthritis in my knees and neck.I get a lot of discomfort and pain in my legs ,and they can’t do anything for me so I have to live with it.I have a scooter and wheelchair. I still enjoy my life just differently. But FairPlay to you for doing what you do.hope it helps.❤

Lynn your such a lovely lady enjoy your vlog keep up the good work with the treadmill ❤ walking myself get dancing yourself 😂 take care 😊

Just subscribed and it’s like looking and listening to myself! Really enjoying them! In fact I could watch all day! Well done!

Thank you Lynn really enjoyed this ,very informative and I am sure you have helped so many people.xx

That was very interesting to hear about you and your health problems, I do hope you get your leg sorted. soon ...beats me why they didnt look at both legs at the same time! I am 70 and go line dancing twice a week so that about 5 hours altogether, and have done so since I was in my forties,maybe you should try that you dont need a partner.We dance to all kinds of music not just country as most people think and you definately do not need cowboy boots etc!! I also do all my own decorating and gardening and always on the go 😊

Hi Lynne first of all congratulations on reaching over 2000 subscribers. I'm a little bit younger than you but I walk everywhere my motto is if you don't use it you lose it so well done for getting the treadmill ,you'll soon be dancing again.😊❤

Hi, Lynn, I have had the same op on my neck, I had aTIA so I was very lucky and I all so walk because I can't drive and I am 77. Thank you. Lou

Hi , yes something different from you , not good to have health problems I wish you all the best, at our age it's not easy to give up the things we love to eat , and I do feel the same about walking. In the last 3 months I have taken to just having coffee and pice of small toast at 7am in the morning, then lunch meat or fish with vegetables or salads , and at night very ligh, some fruit a few nuts , cut off eating at 7pm . And I must say I have lost 5kg . I have missed my pasta and sweet things , but you can have a small treat at some point. Everyone is different what works for me may not be for someone else . Good luck 😘

Hi Lynn. Like you i am trying to lose weight. Never been on a diet in my life - never needed to. I was always under weight growing up. 3st when i was 12 and even full term preg never heavier than 7.5 st and not much of a bump. Now retired and find myself overweight its just not me so healthier eating and walking is what i am trying to do but nothing happening as yet. So good luck to us both I say. Keep it going.x

Hi am 69. During Covid I started to walk daily and can walk about 6 miles sometimes. Did loose a bit of weight but I did get a better shape and feel so much better. Keep going

Hi Lynn, you've inspired me to walk more. Thanks

That was a lovely vlog with a cuppa, I’m 64 and have had two hip replacements and I seriously need to lose weight and get fitter, I used to love walking but I need to build up my stamina as I’ve become quite sedentary in my old age 😏I’ve Just got an elliptical cross trainer so all I’ve got to do now is start using it 😂

I totally understand how painful and frustrating having your mobility impaired is…I’ve also hired mob scooters on holiday..but not in Uk…that’s pride for you….anyway I had a knee replacement in March and it’s been amazing, mentally as well as physically, feel like I’ve got my life back….I’m having the over knee done next Friday, a bit apprehensive but heyho I know what to expect…I go to Aqua Fit and use my exercise bike at home…it’s knocked a few pounds off but mainly has toned my legs up.. well done on the 2 K subs xx

Hi. A very interesting & important video, things I didn't know about also thanks for sharing.I am 70 ,we went to a Yoga class today. Also we go to the gym & a Pilates class.

Hi Lynn, my 6oth is fast approaching in September, I'm 5ft1 and I'm like a little toby jug, very over weight, hate dieting but I used to enjoy going on my treadmill, going to dust it off and take a leaf out of your book and aim for 20 mins a day. Thank you for the chat and for motivation🙂

and Congrats on over 2k now too 🎉 xx

Just saw this late in the day and found it really interesting So glad you got to the bottom of that and also that there was something that could fix it - despite covid being in the way. Would love to have space for a treadmill, again like yourself not because I would like it 😮 but because I need to get a bit fitter - without going to the dreaded gym and not having to go out in all weathers. Had a treadmill in my garage several years ago and it was great - easy to get a routine. Someone said to me recently that it didn’t matter if you did 2 x half time workouts - it was just the same as the full one. Not too sure about it but once I get some motivation 🤗🙏 then I might put it to the test. I no longer have a treadmill but have followed some of the keep fit routines on KZfaq for 1/2 hour spells but I feel the treadmill was better - especially for the legs Really love your vlogs 😊

Hi Lynn, Im 66 and walk every day , just for 45mins round aboub. I have a wee dog so that gets me ot. Iget sore heavy legs at times, especially climbing stairs but do have bad hips and back. I have partner to walk with as we are both retired but like you I dont like walking in places on my own. I have done it but it gives me anxiety !! Keep thinking theres someone behind me ha ha . I love baking and have put on a bit of weight as I taste it too. You have to dont you. . Its hard to give up the good stuff but the problem is my clothes start to get tight . Anyway, your doing great . Well done on your walking. Im not sure the walking alone makes me loose weight but think it helps with my joints. Cutting down and no sugar makes me loose a bit and keeping moving.

Hi Lynn, thanks for revealing your health issues, you have been through it. My husband had a aneurysm in his abdomen which they monitored for 10 years, till it became large so two years ago he had keyhole surgery and had a graft put in the aorta, the graft has got a very tiny leak but they monitor it annually, so fingers crossed that the leak doesnt worsen. You remind me of myself, dont like diets cos when i am on a diet i am hungry all the time, dont like the gym either, but could you put tge link on to the yoga you are doing please. Xx❤️❤️❤️

The leg problem might be what my sister in law has. Very interesting. I need to walk more but like you wouldn't walk alone. Might put a shout out for a walking partner here in West Yorkshire. Good luck with everything ❤

Thank you for this vlog, I feel your pain, I have PVD ,been managed by medication. Straingely I first noticed it on holiday in Tenerife. I don't think people understand just how bad the pain can be

Looking forward to following you on your journey.. I really need to do this!

Hello Lynn,,I don't like gyms either, I have lost 33 lbs since January 2023,,no I don't follow any weight losing plan.I just eat in moderation. I will be interested in following your progress...no don't use the word diet its negative. I say I am on a healthy lifestyle now..I stopped smoking in 1991....

Hi Lynn. I am the same age as you and I enjoy your channel very much. I think you did the right thing in getting a treadmill for exercise. I have had one for years. I didn't use it for many years until COVID and I started using it six days a week for 30 minutes. I don't diet either like you but feel healthy for my age. I have Stills Disease a rare rheumatology problem well controlled with medication. I would encourage you to use the treadmill regularly and you will feel much healthier. I always have a u tube video to watch while I'm walking on the treadmill and the time flies. Keep up the good work!

Hiya Lynn, after subscribing yesterday I've watched a couple more videos. This was really informative. I'm a big walker and try to move around as much as possible, even when I'm at home. I'm 69 and had open heart surgery 3 years ago for a valve replacement due to a congenital issue. I lost a lot of weight very quickly as I was in hospital a month and could hardly eat anything. It took me more than a year of hard work to get my health and strength back. I now eat a healthy diet, walk loads and my weight's been stable for the last 2 years. Can you give us an update on your journey please? Christine

Well said i live 8n America from leeds and love your vlog.

The only exercise I do is walking on the treadmill for an hour a day. I started at 10mins and built it up. I’ve lost 5st but have been dieting as well. I feel fitter than I’ve ever been

Hi Lynn, Thanks for sharing xx I am trying to cut down in my sugar intake, its not easy as I have sugar rushes and need sweet of some sort to settle. I have high blood pressure and I have to cut out sugar, salt and so much more including cakes, potatoes, bread etc. Genetics means that I cannot win as my family all have the same issue….What do I eat? Anyway lets hope you will not have to wait too long to get your appointment and back to where you want to be health wise. Take care, best of luck xx
