Help for my mom
Hi everyone!
I was hoping that maybe I could get some information about some exercises my mom could do. She's trying really hard with her diet to lose weight, and that alone just isn't working. I know some exercise will help, but it's tricky.
She's 47 and definitely wants, and has been working very diligently, to live a healthier lifestyle. Though I haven't asked her specifically how much weight she would like to lose, it's probably around 80 pounds.
The major obstacle for her exercising is her feet. Something is really wrong with them, and no doctor has been able to figure out what. She says it feels like a pinched nerve, and just walking around her office during the day has her feet aching by the time she gets home.
Are there any exercises that wouldn't require her to put too much pressure on her feet? Walking is definitely out. Exercises that wouldn't require her to remain standing for long periods of time. Does anybody have any ideas that I could suggest to her?
I really appreciate the advice! She's trying so hard, I just don't want her to get discouraged
