    I was diagnosed 3 years ago, along with PCOS and hashimoto's. I lost 150lbs in 6 months successfully, although I couldn't keep it off.

    Have you looked into the AutoImmune Protocol diet? I have fibro and I suspect sjorgrens as well but have yet to be diagnosed as I'm dealing with a disc issue in my neck right now which has taken precedence.

    I did AIP for awhile and found it pretty darn helpful with my fibro symptoms. I've been able to reintroduce quite a few things back in in moderation.

    I bought an Instant Pot (2 actually) and use those a lot. It really speeds things up. I try to do some prep on Sundays for the week but sometimes I'm just too wiped. The other thing I do is when I do cook, I will double or even triple a batch, then freeze it in the vacuum sealer bags. I'm also not super picky for lunches during the week and will make a batch of something, soup, meatballs, asian crack slaw and eat it every day for lunch.

    This is one of my favorite recipe bloggers. She has an autoimmune disease and is also a fantastic cook. I love her recipes because they are mostly a few simple ingredients but are super flavorful. She has mostly keto/aip recipes. She also has a cookbook but her blog has a ton of yummy recipes.
