I am a parts inspector in a rubber factory. I sit at my bench for 8 hrs a day sometimes 10hr days. The only time I get up is to take a walk to the bathroom or to the lunch area. I need a knee replacement surgery and have back problems so I walk with a cane. I joined weight watchers 4 weeks ago and have lost 10 lbs since then but haven't exercised at all yet. I just bought a walker with a seat so I can start going for walks around the block but if I need to rest I will be able to sit down. I really don't know what else to do since I am so limited. It is very frustrating. I know my diet alone isn't going to do it.

    Just remember diet is 80% of weight loss so don't get discouraged, sounds like your on a great start with WW!! I sit 10hours/day so i know how hard it is to get excerise in.
