Multiple Sclerosis and weight loss

Okay, so I am doing my best to eat healthy, workout and manage my stress. Today I have the stiffest legs ever. When I am really trying hard to do all of the right things for my disease (keeping mobile and staying away from junk food and stress), it stinks that it can still kick my butt. Therein lies my frustration that we MSers deal with everyday.

But I digress...

I am really focused on healthy eating and exercise because I notice I am not as mobile as I used to be and I am really looking flabby. It is an even greater uphill battle -- that is one to have MS and try to lose weight at the same time.

Any suggestions? I am getting older so I am fighting that battle, too. When I do slim down, it will be for good as I can't risk being fat and not being able to walk. May as well look good as I am teetering around!!
