I am a very busy paramedic who works up to 80 hours a week and attends school full-time. I was diagnosed with Lupus two years ago and packed on 50 lbs due to medication. I am learning to live with this diagnosis and try to get myself to a healthier version of me.

I am looking for like minded busy individuals to help me keep my motivation in check.

    Hi, I could use a weight loss pal to help keep me accountable. I too have autoimmune illness and there is nothing that says love to eat like prednisone!

    Hi I'm just learning to use these forums. I have lupus too. I got diagnosed this year and just turned 39 it's been six months and I've gained 35 pounds on the prednisone. I would love to get a group together for support with weight loss and lupus or any other autoimmune disease.

    I would love to join a group of individuals dealing with the same issues. It is a delicate balance between exercise and wearing one's self out to the point of not being able to move for several days.
