I live in my wheelchair and have several disabilities. However I have still managed to so far lose 314lbs or 142kg. I still need to lose 50lbs or 23kg so I can have skin removal surgeries. But it can still be done with zero exercise if you want it bad enough.

I saw your other thread, and want to thank you for putting yourself out there to show others that it can be done. We hear so many excuses, and someone with a disability does have rough going. You are a wonderful example of commitment. Best of luck for the future!9

Add me as a friend to see my daily eating etc.
But it has taken a damn lot of work! I won’t sugar coat it. It is bloody hard when you can’t exercise, but it IS doable! However I do not advise to use what I have been able to do as an excuse to not move at all. If you are able to move, even if it is just walking up and down the length of inside your own home at first. Moving and any form of movement is a lot better for you!
I just want everyone out there who can’t get up and move for whatever reason it is, know that there is still hope to be able to lose the weight and I am here to support ANYONE movement or not, who is ready to start their life and stop dieting.

I am actually posting a YouTube video soon about what happened the day I hit rock bottom and then what I did and am still doing. But it is really just simple basic common sense that we all already know.

Wow that in itself should be the title of a video I make!!
I don’t think there is one most difficult thing that I have had to overcome, there have been so very many and it seems to constantly change...
Losing friends
Losing family
Having body dysmorphia
Horrible negative comments from people
The list goes on and on...
But the many many good things are what keeps me motivated. The biggest thing is it was just MY time, I had hit my personal rock bottom and when that happens, nothing really stops you. Yeah sure you have little set backs. But I’m talking a bad meal. Not totally falling off the wagon like when you used to diet all the time.
Every week I seem to learn something new about myself.
I’m not the pushover everyone once thought I was.
I like totally different music to what I thought I did, because now I listen to what I want.
I am back into art
In two weeks I start boxing training, last time I did that was about 25+ years ago. I may now be boxing from a wheelchair, but boy I can’t wait to strap up and slide the gloves on again! 🥊
It just gets better and better, after a while you find you don’t even need motivation anymore as it has just become a way of life somewhere along the line and you didn’t even notice it 😊12 -

My first ever photo shoot! This is my hubby, one of my cavaliers Adelaide and myself.12 -
I love the photos - but more so - I LOVE how you are sharing your progress and that you keep going! I hope you post a photo of you in Boxing Gloves! You go! You are motivating - and definitely give the rest of us NO EXCUSES!0

I never even thought of photos at the gym or with my gloves on. But that is a great idea, thank you!
Oh they will be an awesome laugh for me and hopefully everyone who sees them, as any action shots taken will also have some great action shots of the excess skin on my arms moving and swinging 😂 😂.... yes I laugh when my excess skin on my arms makes a slapping noise when I do some things, like shake off a wet teaspoon I just rinsed under the water 😂 it fun and funny. I like to laugh at myself 😁😂😂0 -
I am absolutely amazed and inspired by your determination and commitment. You look great!1

I really hope so too. I won’t lie, I went through hell and back to get where I am now and I will go through more to get to my goal. But I want this and I know I can do it no matter what my body wants to do, I will always win!2
