Here is a suggestion for working into an exercise program.
First get a 5 pound potato bag. Lift the bag over you head doing 10 repetitions twice a day.
After you get comfortable with the 5 pound bag go to a 10 pound potato bag.
Once you can handle that without too much difficulty go back to the 5 pound potato bag. This time put in one potato and repeat.

I can relate to the diabetes deal.I am going to be 49 next month and i got hit with type 2 diabetes about four months ago.It does change your outlook and definately diet and physical regiment.Getting older can be so much fun.I currently do three miles on the treadmill and four sets of 250 crunchies every day. Three times a week I lift. At 53 I'm in good shape for a guy my age, I've lost 12 lbs in the last 2 months and need to lose another 15 lbs to get to my correct weight of 170. My motivation for all this self inprovement is wanting to get back into Taekwondo competition and oh yea--that frigging diagnosis of diabeties that hit me square in the face with a 2x4 about five months back. Total change of life style, man do I miss a cold beer on Friday after work.
