I've been doing my walking early in the morning, but I realize that's not going to cut it for someone living in Texas, in July!
Actually, I have been wondering about this potential problem (Ohio can be miserable hot too, at times) and also wondering what I am going to do in the winter when the sidewalks are icy. I have, in a surprisingly short time, become addicted to and dependent upon a daily walk. I used to walk years ago but had forgotten just how much it raises your spirits and helps you ignore food! I've heard about people walking in shopping malls, but I live sort of in the inner city and the closest mall is a 1/2 hour drive which makes it kind of hard to fit into my day. No pools close by either.
Have you thought about a stationary bike or something like that? I haven't bought one yet, partly because of the expense and partly because I don't know where I would put it! - but I'm considering it. I just know that if I give up exercising I'm going to be really sorry.
