Ah a response!!! (Sorry if this isnt how you respond to comments Im new!) THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR ADVICE! Im glad to say I do have a doctor and have spoken to him about this! He always says to start slow with walks and such but he is typically very vague about his advice ahaha he says a lot to take it easy and not push myself. I guess it never crossed my mind that I could start slow! I used to be a very busy body wanting results as fast as possible but now I have to learn to change that. I really appreciate your response, hearing from someone else that its ok to start slow really reassures me! Also thanks for the 2-4 times a week advice, typically Id try to work out every day and by the end of the week Id be exhausted and quit :< ah to go back to the days of 16 when I could do cardio every day for hours on end and not feel ah though ive entered the shadow realm the next day. Running is only an issue for me because my dislocated knee is healing SO SLOW because of my medication and admittedly poor diet choices. Its been a year but theres still some signs of unhealed damage and inflammation in my recent Xrays. I was told a slow stretching regimen and a proper balanced diet should help (I tend to forget to stop to eat meals and then make up for it with useless snacks that have no nutritional value...goodbye Baja Blast and Pringles ; A; ANYWAY I also talk too much ahaha I just really appreciate you responding! My doctor thinks itll be impossible for me to get fit as long as Im on prednisone and I am DEFINITELY gonna prove him wrong >:T

Hiya fellow nerds! Im glad I found a forum like this so lemme just get into it. Im 25 and female. I used to be very healthy I took dance classes on a regular, had a decent diet and was 5'4 125LBS. Then when I turned 18 I got an auto immune disease. I was immediately put on corticosteroids for inflammation and very quickly ended up bedridden but the worst began 2 years ago when I developed a generalized anxiety disorder. In a little less than a year I put on 75LBS, was bedridden most days and am now sedentary. I also dislocated my knee last year and it has since not felt the same. I spend most time in bed now. My doctor tells me I am completely deconditioned and will have to "re-learn" everything. But where do I even begin? My body aches from excess weight and a 5 minute uphill trip makes me feel as though I'm going to pass out. Im completely out of shape. I get heart palpitations and get dizzy with the slightest effort. My diet was also in the trash for the longest time because prednisone (My auto Immune med) increases your appetite. Ive only just recently switched to eating as healthy as I can. Im not the most financially stable individual with getting sick constantly but I do what I can. I also just got a planet fitness membership but thanks to covid thats a bust. Im stuck at home and the only exercise thing I have are 2 10lbs dumbbells altho I could likely afford some type of equipment up to $50 in cost. I need so much help Im so last for where to even start. I just want to be able to cosplay Ryuko again ; A;
