others w/physical disabilities?

I am 41 years old and trying to lose a couple. I have CP, using a wheelchair the majority of the time.

  • It took me 2 hours to find this thread. I needed a thread with people that are disabled in varying degrees like here. I have a a chronic, degenerative auto immune, plus other fun things. I can be in a wheelchair one day and walking around the next week looking like everyone else. I was 100+lbs overweight when I started losing, and still have about 100 to go. Dr is working with me, so that helps. The weight has made the dependence on devices more frequent. I know that the motorized chair is an eventual definite thing, but I want to put it off as long as possible.

    Is this the only page of people like us? Is there a group (with link, please) for more posts like this? Thanks for opening up on here to let others like me know they are not alone.
  • My apologies for the delayed response again....

    I used to be a member of a group on here, but it just disappeared :(

    I have set one up for now, as it would be of great interest to me. We can always try and see....
