I've lost 36.2kg in 52 weeks with Fibro and Vertigo0

I've had Fibro for 15 yrs and my weight goes up and down and it's very hard to control my weight. Losing weight is very difficult, the heavier I am the more I hurt and the more probls I have with my Fibro. I have to be in constant motion or the pain is so much more worse and I have to watch what I eat, staying away from processed foods that are high in carbs helps especially pastas and breads. I'm a carb eater so to replace this I eat sweet potatoe noodles and mung bean thread noodles. I have found that being consistent in everything you do helps, wether it's food, exercise, sleep and meds. Also I take 5000units of vitamin D and 2000 units of vitamin B every morning which helps with energy. Hope this helps!0

Yes, i feel achy from fibro and have pain from arthritis. My philosophy is - i'm going to be hurting no matter what i'm doing - nothing or excercising so I might as well excercise. I feel that it helps my quality of sleep and mood which in turn helps my fibro.0

I have had Fibromyalgia (diagnosed) for 15 years now. Losing weight and exercising regularly have really helped keep the pain under control. I still have my flare-ups, but they are nowhere near as bad as they used to be. I have not noticed any particular effect on my weight loss.0
