I lost weight two years ago. I lost 33 lbs but have gained some back after an accident that left me unable to do the exercises most do and I need to lose about 75 lbs. I am a diabetic and I have all sorts of leg and feet problems cause of it and an accident I had when I fell two years ago. Help!!!!!!

Hi,

I just registered on here so I'm a newbie, but I can be your buddy. I lost around 25 lbs a couple of years ago & have put that back on plus more. I'm back trying to lose again, but I too have health issues that make it hard to exercise.

I have some bulging discs in my back; also had back surgery in 1988, may be a candidate for surgery again. I have been going to the YMCA and exercising in the warm water pool. I'm on a 4 week medical leave from work or until I can see a neurosurgeon.

Is there somewhere you could exercise in water? Preferably warm water?

I was typing a reply and somehow lost my post. I love to swim and always feel so good once I am done but my sister in law, whose pool I did use is moving in three weeks. We do go to the lake but not near as much as I like. I am trying to walk a little more but my feet hurt so bad. My diet was off today too. I did not get my limit of water and due to some stressful things that are going on ate more then I intended.
