Exercise Update

[positiveness]

Greetings everyone!

A lot of people wanted me to update them on my exercising goals. I am still not able to lift my feet off the floor in a seated position, but I still have hope. I am working with a PT now and OT.

Stay positive 👍🏼🙏😉🐾🐾

And the OT and PT both said it’s not a good idea for me, or anyone else with MS, to do exercises that fully exhaust the muscles.

Also in my case, keeping things more simple and accurate is ok. I don’t have to just jump into super heavy resistance bands. Slow and steady wins the race after all.

I agree 👍

I just have to say that there are great people here and thank you so much.

Will be in prayer with your OT and PT🙏🏾

[positiveness]

Thank you everyone for all your prayers and support. Last night before going to sleep, I sat on the edge of the bed and decided to try to do some marches and it was actually a success. That’s the first time in months or years, but anyhow, a long time. It was not a success this morning when I tried, but I will keep on trying and moving forward. 😉

I find it easier in the morning, but if you find it easier at night keep doing it

Whenever the MS let’s me. I am just sooo surprised I was able to release my feet from the floor in a Seated position. It has taken hundreds of tries.

keep up all of the great work ...you've got this...take care and don't overdo it ....love and much happiness .

Thank you so much! I think it’s easier to overdo it the first week after my Kesimpta shot. I had to rest a lot today on the recliner. I didn’t even do stretches today.

Stay strong - keep up your efforts. I'm rooting for you
