Workout and weight loss on wheels- cooking when you need help

People with disabilities who need help in the kitchen should plan ahead when considering meals. If your attendant only comes in the mornings and nights plan to cook extra meals and put them away. Consider meals that you only need partial help like getting food down from the freezer or pots from the cabinets. Sometimes it may be best to do some work the day before, like cutting vegetables, then have help with a harder part the next day like cleaning the beef. Put foods on counter tops or the kitchen table rather than in hard to reach places like a high cabinet. Placing a rolling cart in the kitchen or dining room is also an idea to make things more reachable. It is not a bad idea to put kitchen items in other rooms so they can be at your height. You can always put pots and pans in a pretty box with a lid in your bedroom. No one will know it has kitchen items inside it will look like it belongs at the foot of your bed.
