Hi there! I signed up for MFP a few months back but am finally using it now. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, a painful autoimmune condition, and I am looking to try to ease my symptoms through diet. I would also like to lose some weight and get back to the 165lbs I was at when I was my fittest, but I am focusing more on improving my pain levels and the swelling in my joints. I don't expect to be able to do circuit training and to run 5-6 days a week like I did back then!

    I am 48 and I have osteoarthritis, neuropathy, diabetes, heart disease and multiple other health problems. I am going to join a health club this week so I can exercise in the pool. Feel free to add me.
