[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1393504, member: 196960"] [USER=128654]@Living-by-the-beach[/USER] I enjoyed reading about your fight with your diabetes. Which just confirms everyone is different. I cannot exercise at the moment but hoping that will change. I took canagliflozin (diabetes med) I've been mostly immobile ever since. Again I'm hoping that can be reversed before I can reverse my diabetes (which I don't believe in, I may add. Once diabetic always diabetic. I know from experience and not diagnosed at 6yrs old when I was clearly diabetic then, 40yrs ago.) Everyone has to find a step in the right direction for THEM. I think that is exactly what you were saying too. I just felt I had to make people realise cycling doesn't have to be the answer. Just a walk to the house gate and back, then to the next street (block) and then to their local shop can make a positive start. A start in the right direction. However again from experience this can be a huge job when depressed. This is where the gp comes in and helps with the depression. Collectively medically and physically any immobile person can make a step in the right direction. I'm abit overwelmed at the thoughts of a huge cycle ride. I'm definitely not ready for that. Little steps will work. Like tiny weight loss in the right direction. Little and often is the key! As a starting point. I'm feeling overwelmed just with the thoughts of huge exercise. My stress levels rebuff that idea and worry me - immediately. I know my limitations and my full capabilities, when I'm fit. Just today isn't that day. Little and often with gp help can conquer depression for a healthy start. [/QUOTE]
