you CAN do this!! I have vowed to start... started..stopped...vowed to start again...started..stopped many times over. All while watching my weight go up,up ,up. And most of the time not even watching but truly not even looking. I have STARTED again. Sometimes it is measured by ONE BITE at a time. Don't take that carb laden, sugar laden bite...instead eat an egg, a piece of chicken, god forbid a vegetable(i hate veggies;-). Do this more and more one bite at a time and soon a day will pass, then a week, then..well you know. YOU CAN DO THIS! 

Thx for the words of encouragement! I too have started, stopped and gone again! I used to like to work out and walk! Unfortunately my Diabetes has progressed to Neuropathy and my feet and hands are shot. I am going to get a work out routine that is short and sweet but none the less a workable one. I can no longer do my long walks because I have no feeling in my feet but that will not stop me from some type of exercise for shut ins! I am pretty good at developing programs that work so when I get it I am going to post it to maybe benefit other like me! The problem is I have won and lost this game so many times I seem to hit a lot of road blocks. I have to keep going this time since I am virtually fighting for my life and limbs. Thx again for the support and I will do my best to stay the course! 

Also ...speak to your doctor about aquatic physical therapy. My doctor prescribed it for the arthritis in my knees and my immobility due to that. I have been doing that 2 days a week for the past 2 weeks. It's covered by my health insurance for 8 sessions. I am considering joining the Y after I am finished the PT so I can take water aerobics classes. Good Luck! 

Thx Maria I think I would like pool exercises 

Hi JSP, I'm kinda sorta in Your predicament. My psyc did tell me any other addiction, food can also be an addiction. Most people don't see it that way. You think of drugs, alcohol or cigarettes. I actually have a food addiction. Have medical issues (they are physical) also. And r the worst. I pray a lot and each pm my mindset is: Start fresh in am. I do have physical issues but try not to let them get in my way. Most days I ache and my legs are swelled and they ache bad enough that I just can't seem to find the energy. I too am starting over today with a fresh outlook. I do however have cognitive issues that some don't understand. I have memory problems along with focus/distraction. Seems to be gettin worse. I deal with it and as I stated above, Prayer helps me so much. When I read, though comprehension can be an issue, there are times when a verse just tends to stand out and I really take the time to think about it, I kinda sorta get a new prospective where I get it. Applies to my situation. My encouragement to you today and tomorrow is do not give up. I'm right there with you.
