“I’ve had to start more than a few daily habits in the last month, maybe two.

I have an issue with my heart; in my defense, I was born with a congenital heart defect regarding my pulmonary valve. In my early teens, the valve was fixed but is now causing problems again.

They will not operate until my lungs heal, I lose weight, and I can walk for more than 20 minutes.

So far, I’ve been walking two to three times a week, wearing my CPAP, and counting calories. Although I have a long road ahead of me, I have noticed a bit of a difference in my energy level, and I even managed to walk an extra block during my last walk!”
