Hi and welcome!
I too have Multiple Sclerosis. Yesterday was actually the 4 year anniversary of my diagnosis.
I firmly believe losing weight and getting healthy is the very best thing we can do for ourselves. We can't cure the MS, but we can get rid of the fat and all the health related issues that come along with it.
I was banded 9 1/2 months ago and I've lost 158 pounds so far. I have to tell you- losing weight, eating healthy, and forcing myself to be more active has helped me more than any MS drug ever could. The National MS Society's slogan is "Keep Moving" and I understand that now more than ever. It's so crucial for us to keep our bodies moving so MS can't stop them.
When I had the surgery in January, I walked with a cane. I had to park in handicapped spaces just to make it into stores then use a motorized cart to get around the store. Now, since losing the weight, I don't use a cane anymore, I don't use a motorized cart, and I don't need a handicapped spot. I now walk about 2 miles 5 days a week.
If I can do this, you can totally do this too!! Believe in yourself!!
Best wishes to you!
