    maybe the Y has a scooter or wheel chair to push you to the water aerobics? My friend suggested this as she helps out at her local Y.

    I wish you all the best:flowerforyou:

    Welcome! You are in the right place. Start with small steps. I walked to the end of my street. If you can do that, walk across the room, to the door, to the mail box. Do it 5x a day to build up stamina.

    I couldnt lift my purse due to an neck injury and now I do 30 push ups and lift 10 lbs. It CAN be done!!

    Good luck!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Ain't she smart? Sounds like a plan. Get to the doc, talk to them about your plans. Start with eating right. Tackle that obstacle first. While doing that, add in trips to the mailbox. Multiple times a day. Walk around your house. Something small. Build up. Your stamina will increase tremendously and quickly, just stick with it.

    Welcome to MFP! We are glad to have you here!! :flowerforyou:
