I exercised for the first time in months yesterday and this time I am trying to be smarter about the intensity and duration I begin with.  Of course, I want to be able to walk the four miles I was doing when I had to stop and I want to do it today! 

So far - OK I admit it has only been two days - I am doing good.  Yesterday I walked for 15 minutes and today I walked for 30 minutes.  Tomorrow I begin physical therapy on my shoulder (I broke my clavicle on March 1, 2018 which required a plate, screws and a couple of bone grafts. 

The plate, screws and bone grafts are permanent.  I also have a small partial tear of the rotator cuff and a biceps tendon strain that my orthopedic surgeon explains can be resolved with therapy.  I really hope that is the case because I have two complete rotator cuff tears in my other shoulder that can't be helped with therapy. 

More on my exercise progress later.......
