Default I have psoriasis...

I have psoriasis. It is on the palms of my hands and the soles of my feet. Exercise makes them leak and bleed. I asked the doctor why and he said that exercise WILL make them worse. So how am I supposed to exercise to lose weight? He shrugged his shoulders.

So, I figured if I could lose some of the weight first I would be able to start exercising without hurting myself. I found Atkins because I knew I had only one chance to lose enough of the weight to, HOPEFULLY, be able to start exercising. Okay, so I lost like 12 lbs the first week, hit 15 lbs down, bounced back up 3 lbs and haven’t shown ANY further weight loss in a month. It sucks! The last time I was on a diet, I watched the lbs melt off as I was able to exercise! My fav was powerwalking 4+ miles during lunch hour. Oh, for those days past. I HATE this psoriasis! Now, just walking through my house is agony. It’s pernicious as all getout!!! It is getting better but today I had more damage because I took my daughter to the mall.

Any recommendations?
