I am new in the world of message boards, I am sure I'll catch on. I've been reading a lot and this is a very supportive community. I currently go to a edical weight loss place that is writing down all you eat and weighig in. I have lost 20 pounds with tem, but I am stuck. The lack of support and advise may be part of it.
I recently been told I don't has MS after 16 years. I have been pretty sedentary so how a bit of exercise and I am very tired. This going to be baby steps. I used to be a soccer player and my mind still thinks I can perform like I did in my youth. My body says "Girlfriend, are your crazy this is painful"
I hope with weight loss and eventually building my energy I will be able go off a lot of the medications I take. Exspecially the pain drugs.
Looking forward to meeting new friends working in getting fit.
