The best thing I can think of is to have one Salad a day with a few glasses of water throughout the day.. Do that for a couple months and I should be a couple dozen pounds less. What if I want to do it quicker? Is there a safe means to Weight Loss pills or something?

How to lose weight when almost confined to bed?

Question by Dawn B: How to lose weight when almost confined to bed?
My mom had heart & lung failure a few years back. She had to have a tracheotomy tube put in and sleeps on a vent machine at night to assist her lungs under her body's weight. She also has degenerative osteoarthritis. If she lost some weight she could lose the tube and probably would feel better, and would at least be able to use the lift bus service with her electric wheelchair. We don't have a lot of money for a weight loss program & our exercise options are limited. Any ideas?

Do some floor exercises, and lift small weights. You won't see a huge difference, but it will help with toning.
