Lose Weight Wheelchair
I need to lose 30 lbs of stomach fat, but have spina bifida and am in a wheelchair. Any tips for exercises?
I have a bad back, and crunches are out of the question. I tried swimming 4 days a week for six weeks in an adaptive PE class, but lost no weight.
My husband has spina bifida, but he is mobile. I know the struggles that he goes through. It's tuff! I would recommend eating smaller portions and more frequently. I am not sure if there is an adaptive stomach cruncher. Have you tried one of those ab machines that you lay your head on and it rocks you up with the pressure of your arms pushing? I bet that will work. I don't know where your paralysis starts, but if you have upper strength, as most people with SB do, you could try that. I am a special education teacher also and my students that are in a wheelchair love doing things outdoors. Is you chair automatic or manual? If you have a manual chair, maybe you can wheel yourself down a straight stretch as fast as you can but still being safe. The key is getting that heart rate up and sustaining it for period of time. Finding the balance between that and eating and your LIMITED abilities to do cardio is very hard. Email me from my profile if you ever need someone to talk to. I don't know how old you are, but I do know a lot about Spina Bifida and the challenges that you face. Like I said my husband lives with it and I have many students and clients that deal with it. Good luck sweetie.

I'm in a wheelchair -- Possible to lose weight with no exercise?
I recently broke both of my legs and fractured several vertebrae in my back and neck (drunk driver hit me) and am confined to a wheelchiar for several months as i work thru therapy. What I want to know is if I consume 500 to 1000 calories per day (closer to 800 actually) will i lose weight even though I wont be able to exercise at all?
Any time you lower your calorie intake, you will lose weight. However, in your situation, losing weight could be bad for your bones right now... Since you're in the process of healing, you should consult your doctor's office and ask them what you need to do. Maybe consuming the lower calories and taking a good multi-vitamin and supplemental calcium tablets might help. I'd seriously check with your doctor, though.
I'm real sorry about your accident. I hope that person gets what they deserve! I wish you a speedy and safe recovery.
Your dog sounds like a fighter… I would say go for it, it may help her. If your vet seems unsure about doing back surgery, find another vet who is more experienced with spinal problems. It never hurts to get a second opinion.
