I don't know if anyone is still active here but I have relatively (doesn't feel it sometimes) mild MS, been diagnosed with RRMS for 15 years this year (since I was 17). I've found it much more difficult over the past 5 years or so to control my weight, a combination of steroids, relapses and needing a stick now have led to my weight ballooning. I still love walking but my MS doesn't like it so much. I got a slipped disk about a year and a half ago when I was quite fit and using a gym and that's meant I haven't been able to exercise a lot but I'm having physio and trying to strengthen my core muscles. I have a gym membership but I struggle to go there by myself or to make it an important job to do. I struggle with binging sometimes too. I guess I'm just looking to chat to like minded individuals and get some motivation to get exercising.
Thanks

    Hi, I'm 61 and encourage you to stay moving. It is getting harder to stay limber now...sure wish I could have understood when I was younger how important excercise is to staying mobile but I did not know about tell MS until 2008.
