I am thinking about trying it next week after I have the money to join. My muscles are looking better since I have went to therapy and I am doing these same exersises everyday so my muscles don't get week from having ms. So I figure i need to diet also to get my weight back dow, i might wait to ask my nerologist since I go next week for a visit before Ai try this. I hope this time that she thinks I am done with physical therapy. I make myself do the same exersices every day at home. Except for the stainary bike. I don't have one of those.

It's great that you are coming along so nicely, Shaun, and I'm sure that your neurologist will be pleased with anything you do to strengthen your body and feel good about yourself. Just keep doing those exercises!

Yeah I will. I passed it a few weeks ago when I was done last week. I just have to see what my nerologist says. I am walking a lot better then I was before at least.

Ask your neurologist for some new exercises to try. Also ask about lifting hand weights. If you change the routine around, and add different ones, you can use various muscles instead of the same ones constantly. This will help more areas :)

She will just send me back to Physical Therapy. I already have 5 different pages of excersises that I do already. For hand lifting weights abd also for my legs.

I have friends who have tried south beach diet and since they lost weight, so I guess it has been effective for them. It is just the right thing to do too that you consult your doctor first before going into any diet program. Given the determination and discipline, I am confident that you would loose weight. Good luck!

Well sweety I am not a great believer of fad diets - I believe more in eating everything moderately. I would say that if I were you I would wait until you see your doctor before starting any diet and see what he recommends. Good Luck xxx

Your proberly right. I go to see her next month. I liked the first nerologist better. i think he is over the rest in the ms clinic. I'm not really sure but he has gotten me alot of help that I needed.
