not really sure what to say aside from that, I'm new, still figuring out the app. Maybe find a fit buddy ? I'm medically limited with physical things so I take things slow and calculated. I can walk but I cannot run(boo), anyway hit me up

    Don't let your limitations hold you back from following what MFP recommends...you will read about a lot of success people have had on here by just eating at a calorie deficit without exercise. Walking is a great start and will get you moving. Welcome, I wish you success in achieving your goals!

    Thanks. I actually have brain damage from meningitis that has caused paralysis in select muscles in my right leg, I dream of running, but my leg doesn't work that way. It's been 7 years so I've learned to live with it. Walking is great, I love the stationary bike too. Anyway, I do love the encouragement, I surely need more of that in my life. :)

    Thanks everyone!! I'm going to need to work extra hard against all the meds I'm in too like prednisone and lyrica- both notorious for packing in the pounds like your a bear going into hibernation. Lol
