Anyway ideas on how to get a disabled depressed person motivated to work out?
Brand new to this group was looking for a community that may help me with trying to get motivated to lose weight.
I'm 170 pounds and 5'1'. I carry it well enough, but there are days I can feel it more than others.
I was in the military and never liked working out even then but did what I could to stay in compliance with the standards. I had my first kid and struggled to keep my weight down. By the time I had my 2nd (and last) kid, I was 35 and 175 pounds.
I lost 20 pounds, but then things happened to my body, and long story short, I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. It took a year to recover, and my left side of my body is significantly weaker than the right, so running (which I enjoyed) stopped.
I'm medically retired but fell into a deep depression and here I am. I do better with a workout partner, but my husband does his own thing, and I have no friends here since we moved to Texas (this heat is also making me extremely fatigued). Also my children are special needs.
I want to do things that will stick, and that's why I laid everything out on the table. If anyone has any suggestions or even words of encouragement, I would appreciate it.
