If you've never been fit this would be an opportune time! Bulging disks need muscular support and exercise will do well for your diabetes control!  My suggestion would be to find a mat Pilates class.  Mat classes are designed to build intrinsic muscle strength.  Meaning the small muscles that support vital components of movement.  The classes are not a sweat class, in fact often felt to easy by hardier souls.  But in my opinion everyone should be doing a basic mat class every once in a while to make sure proper muscles are engaged and remain healthy!   Look around and see if you can sample classes or talk to teachers to strike a cord with them.  Usually you need to commit to a 10 week series and that will be a great for you and your back!
