Homeschool Mom with Chronic Pain

I just started using MFP last week and think this is a really amazing tool. I also started working out to Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. I suffer from fibromyalgia type pain and it is quite challenging for me to exercise but I am determined to work through the pain and try my best to get healthier. I have 4 children that I am homeschooling which is yet another reason to get in shape. Is there anyone else out there with chronic pain specifically fibromyalgia?

    Yes. Yes and Yes! Chronic pain, and home-schooled my 3 kids 10 years ago. they are all grown. It's so good to know there's someone out there doing similar things. Good luck! (though I know luck has nothing to do with it) Carry on! :)

    Could have written your post. I have FIbro, in addition to other issues. It is getting easier to exercise. I just have to really love what I am doing to do it. The rest is bonus if I feel like it. Where it gets me is the eating. I have a flare or pain, I want to bury myself in food.
    I am currently HSchooling my two Special Needs Boys. We will make it!
