Dr. Laura,

I've heard you talk to many callers about their weight, many of whom are considerably smaller than I am. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, while listening to the marathon, some calls I heard really started to sink in.

You always recommend walking one hour a day. Being that the temperatures have been above normal here, Sunday afternoon I went for an hour walk. It has been five days and, although my right hip isn't necessarily happy with me, I am enjoying my walks. While it is good for me physically, it is also a good time to either zone out and clear my head. I can even take the time to work through things that are bother me.

Five days is no great accomplishment, but it is definitely a start! Thank you for providing some motivation to get off the couch. I appreciate you and enjoy listening to your show. Keep up the great work!
