Hi all members, Just joined as I need some motivation and dieting tips to get myself sorted. I'm currently waiting for surgery on two slipped discs. The problem I'm having is due to my condition I'm virtually immobile and over the past 6 weeks i've put on 6 kilo's of weight.

Now I'm starting to get worried about my physical health and not just my back being totally blown out. So therefore I've joined myfitnesspal with a hope of losing some weight.

    Hi Dave,

    I'm recovering from knee surgery at the minute ( I'm 3 weeks post op). Because of my knee problems I've gained about 5kg since February and it got me really depressed and disheartened. Now I'm totally immobile and on crutches it becomes even more difficult to stay motivated. I find this site really useful in staying accountable and having people 'keep an eye in you'! Good luck with your surgery and it'll be nice to see how you're getting on afterwards :)
