Hi @siemprelucha
How are you doing today?
Weight gain is common, don't be too hard on yourself. But I can understand your urge to move your body and exercise! This is a great topic for discussion, thanks for getting it started! I'll tag a few members who may be able to share the way they get some exercise.

Are you active in your daily life? What type of low impact exercise do you do? What do you do to keep cool while you move your body?
Take care,

swimming is great- low impact and sometimes you can find a warmer pool that helps with pain relief. Plus it's nice to float around

Hi all!
So I've gained some weight since my diagnosis. And by some I mean noticeably a lot. I assume it happens to most people with MS due to the reduction in mobility. But what type of exercise do y'all do? In before times I was a runner and did weekend spin class. I'm willing to try new things ! But I am looking for something that I can do regularly, so no over exertion. I also get really hot now when I work out, and enclosed rooms like where my spin class was, just won't cut it anymore.
Thanks!
