Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with MS about a year ago. I used to be a runner, but I can't do that anymore. I fell into a big slump, and I think I was a bit depressed. I started exercising with a stationary bike a few months ago, and I feel so much better. I am a teacher and I get up at 5 AM two days a week to ride the bike, plus I do it on the weekends every day. Fighting to be as slim and strong as I can be. Glad to be here.

Hey there!! I was diagnosed about 3 years ago. I am very fortunate in that my symptoms are mild and I have maintained my mobility thus far. I suffer mostly with issues in my upper body (shoulders/arms/hands) & from the depressive episodes that seem to plague MS folks. I have been here on MFP for about 5 years. I am "starting over" over on my weight loss journey after a year of severe depression & a 35 lb weight gain. I am looking for active friends- feel free to add me if you like. Best of luck!!0
