Posting from my phone, which is difficult.
Helia, would walking instead of jogging help? Burns calories, just takes longer to go a mile or 2. It's about 100 calories a mile, no matter how long it takes. Doing weights also burns calories, but it takes time and energy. Taking a few days to rest, do some stretching, icing the affected areas to reduce inflammation may be helpful. Many insurances will pay for chiropractic or physical therapy . Tai Chi and yoga are reported to be helpful for exercises to utilize calories and be gentle on joints.

Dsis3 and I had corn on the cob, tomatoes from my garden, green beans, a little summer sausage for supper, then brownies with ice cream for dessert. No wonder I've been gaining weight! I'm going to start a plan after I get home from my trip.
