  Hi,
  I started the BSD on Saturday and apart from a bit of wavering this morning I am finding it ok. It’s early days so I think it can only get better!

  I have reduced mobility so will struggle with the exercise bit. Does anyone know if this will work slower for me? I have been trying the standing up every 30 mins as well as fidgeting whilst sitting down!! I use crutches around the house but a wheelchair when out. I have a problem with my cervical spine which can cause a lot of pain. I firmly believe that if I lose weight it will also increase my fitness generally therefore helping my mobility.

  Does anyone have any simple low impact exercises I could do sitting?

  Thank you in advance

  Hi Paula
  Would swimming or estero ices work for you? I know there are sitting excercises on the Nhs website.
  Good luck with the diet.
