- Cate64Member@socoda I believe it will start as soon as I receive the first phone call which I am hoping will be today or tomorrow.
&... I just have to say I so super phsyc'd about it, can't wait to start striving towards it, I am running in City@Sea this coming Sunday & next year I want to be doing the 10km instead of the 5km....Sign in to react to this post - socodaMemberCate I'm thinking with your determination that your not going to find that one too hard :) - Excellent!! I'm interested in reintroducing weights into my workout but don't want to over do it. When does your program start?Sign in to react to this post
- Cate64Member@socoda & @TonyaM, thanks.
I have asked to join the 'Healthy Living After Cancer' program with the Cancer Council & am expecting a call from them in the next day or so.
I will initially receive a weekly phone call from the cancer nurse with regards to a healthy diet (yes, fairly basic common sense stuff) & being active (again, for me, fairly basic stuff) but also she/he will help me set goals for improving on it... It is over a 6 month period, initally weekly, then fortnightly onto monthly calls.
I already have my first goal in mind & that is the be able to run 10km instead of 5km.Sign in to react to this post - TonyaMMemberHi Cate,
I'm currently doing the Enrich program every Saturday for 2 hrs. It's run by a Dietition and an exercise physiologist.I would say that the healthy eating part is fairly basic- I'd like more in depth.But the exercise part is good and is motivating me.Sign in to react to this post - socodaMemberHi Cate, I have a brochure for the Healthy Lifestyle program (enrich) by Cancer Council and it looks fantastic, so am thinking of enrolling but it doesn't start until Feb 17.Sign in to react to this post
