Phil,

we can pray for each other about exercising.  My parents bought me a set of 
ropes that stretch your muscles to give them tone, but I just don't want to 
do it!  If someone would come to me almost every day and ask if I'd like to 
go for a walk, I'd say yes, now.  I just wish the air would get warmer! 
just remember, when you lose all the weight you need to lose, your back will 
probably bother you far less if you ever have trouble with it again, which, 
I hope you won't!

Sharon
