FruitSqueezy's Journal, 13 Sep 15

I felt surprised and grateful for the positive comments you've all sent me today, thank you! I was essentially muttering to myself because I'm so used to keeping my hopeless 'fat thoughts' to myself.
Now because of you all I want to do better to show you all how helpful and uplifting your thoughts, sharing and suggestions are to me. Particularly in knowing that you're struggling too and not just sitting up there on a pedestal in a thin/athletic body telling me how it 'should be' done without having experienced the despair you feel when you're suddenly confined to a wheelchair and your arms won't work.
My biggest problem has been that I haven't been able to find any suitable wheelchair exercise that's effective. But today I'm searching out exercises on the internet that I can do in a wheelchair. When I find some I will put them on a flash stick to play on the TV where I can follow the moves.
I know what it's like to value something, now I want to learn how to value efforts I make and gains I make in my struggle to whittle this body down to a healthy size.
