I have MS and while I have a PT I need some exercises to strengthen my legs and I need to lose some weight (I can ony walk about 10 yards with a walker ~ on a good day so I'm not exactly in the calorie burning mode anymore).

Hi. I have an under active thyroid, severe degeneration of the spine, sciatica, cervical spondolosis, and arthritis in most of my joints. I have never had a weight problem in my life until three years ago when I had a car accident. I am now 4 stone overweight, and because of my disability, I am struggling to loose weight. One of the other problems brought on because of my illness is also depression, so I comfort eat, and dont know what to do with my diet, and also my disabilities as far as exercising is controlled. Can anyone help?
