I have been doing weight bearing exercises for over three years now; plus walking every day. But do it with a personal trainer or you can hurt yourself. I've done that too pulling too heavy weights. So far, have avoided taking medications... I also read various things about coffee. Myself, cannot function without two cups, then I go decaf if needed. Loads of water though.

Thank you for your suggestions on books. I have them on kindle.

Bre, I do leg lifts to each side for my hips and I do weighted squats for my hips. I walk an hour a day. There are tons of osteoporosis exercises on the internet if you google "osteoporosis exercises." Also, check out Facebook for OP exercises. Good luck!

Thank you
