Victoria -- my chiro told me that the jogging craze and step aerobics have
made him a wealthy man lol!!! You be careful! I gave up on step -- I keep
tripping over the step and landing on my face -- I don't think I can blame
that on endo, but rather on my two left feet! Have fun. Kim

races, and being overweight. I'm working on the diet, got out of running (am
back in now) and am getting ready to start step again. It took me a few
months rest, light stuff, with therapy (YUCK!) to get back to this point.
Good luck, its not fun, but keep trying. :)
