About this Group:

A group for people that suffer with chronic pain, and other debilitating conditions. Everyone, and anyone, regardless of race, gender, or orientation is welcome to the group.

Founded, for those that have a common problem with chronic pain, and other conditions which prohibit conventional movement.

Please come in, and share your story - current, and past with the group.

We all struggle on a daily basis - those that suffer with any form of chronic pain understand the difficulty that life brings on a daily basis.

Suffering from a condition that causes great pain makes it difficult to move around to accomplish the simple things that life brings. This results in decreased movement, muscle degeneration - and of course, weight gain.

So come in, take a seat - and chat it up!

How to get the motivation to move
I have similar problems, and the results were the same. Gained weight and stopped exercising. Today, I returned to my Total Gym after 5 days off. It wore me out. But my back is just fine!
