I have been paralyzed from the waist down since 2013. I’ve been steadily gaining weight since then, and I’m starting to get self-conscious about it, especially since people already stare at me in my wheelchair. What are some exercises, things I can do to help me lose this extra weight?
As I find some of this information helpful. I see nothing that covers people that are in an electric wheelchair. That are a quadpalegic. I find that kids are more compassions than adults. At my grandsons soccer game a 7 year old came up and ask my son was his leg hurting anymore. He said no. She said Im sorry they had to cut it off but I hope you get to feelig better. That meant a lot to him for his friends wasnt even there for him.q
