I have been off my feet since Memorial Day due to an injury and am gaining weight. Any weightloss ideas? Help!

Hi Sherry. The specifics of my answer would greatly depend upon what the issue is and why you cannot exercise using your lower body. That being said, without knowing that, when I want to help a client maintain or lose weight/body fat and they are unable to use their legs, I often use a hand ergometer to help burn calories. You get some aerobic work, improve your upper body strength, and burn calories!
I hope this helps.
