Hi! That’s great, Sharaybia! I’m so proud of you. I used to do exercises in the pool when I lived in Texas (the pools in DC are all too cold for me now), and it was great. It’s easier on your joints, it keeps you from getting overheated, and I found it was really good at helping me get stronger as well as lose weight. Many places offer regular classes called “water aerobics” that are helpful. Perhaps if your doctor authorizes it to help your lungs and also to help lose weight, you might get all or part of the cost covered by insurance/Medicaid.

Also, although they are expensive, you might try Glucerna shakes instead of the Slimfast. They do a much better job of controlling hunger with good nutrition and only 220 calories - and they are better for your blood sugar (because they don’t raise it high and drop it, it raises gradually, not nearly as high and stays steady much longer). I get coupons from my doctor.

Really proud of you, my friend! Keep going - best to your mom!
