Subject: RE: BS: It's time for weight loss! HELP!!
I found out today that the new, nasty & quite different pain in both legs was not Deep Vein Thrombosis (hooray!!) So now I have a short course of very strong anti-inflammatories.

But as others have said, it's hard to exercise with permanently bloody sore legs & feet. (ps. the only exercise in my life is a small amount of walking).

Years back when the computer did my hands in (well, it was me overusing it that did the damange which is permanent) I was sent to hydrotherapy for a while cos water exercise are non-weight bearing. One of my friends does water-based exercises & I might ask her what she does. There is a heated pool down the road, but I hate chlorine & don't have a swimsuit. I could probably find one (they do come in larger sizes than I wear!) Maybe.

On the other hand, I am still eating less than I normally do & that is a good thing.
