Hi my name is Joy I am looking for support on my eating more campaign. I have never starved myself anyway couldn't if I tried but I am ready to commit to eating properly. A bit about me I am 42 live in the UK, have 3 kids 2 with special needs and a full time job. I also have a husband, 2 cats, 2 dwarf hamsters and 2 gerbils. I work as a midwife a pretty active and stressful job. I work mainly night shifts. I also have fibromyalgia a condition that causes pain in the joints and muscles and also chronic fatigue. I refuse to take medication it makes me feel spacey and not able to function. I also have a benign meningioma brain tumour no big deal just have a brain scan every year to make sure it causes no problems. As you can see with my life/health I need to look after myself.
My fitness journey started with running and I have completed 2 half marathons but as the fibromyalgia progresses I am finding running harder. I have just completed focus T25 but now want to focus on heavy lifting. I have written myself a programme and start Monday. I have lifted in the past and love it. . Anyone can add me if they want to. I have my TDEE and can't wait to get started. Thanks for reading.
