  • I was finally able to exercise after over a week of fighting off a horrible virus. Even though I couldn't do much before my body became exhausted I'm excited that I'm getting back on track!

  • Lessening the pressure on my joints and having less pain and more energy are highest on my list!
    in What are you most excited about?! Comment by hugrabug January 2016
  • I have days like that, too. I think everyone does from time to time. As others have said, log it and let your focus be on tomorrow having better choices. The biggest help I've found is finding things to keep my busy when I start feeling myself falling into depressive/bored eating. Ive started reading more and taken up a…

  • I'm wanting to lose 50lbs too! I don't know if I'll reach that goal by summer, but I certainly hope to have hit a milestone or two by then!

  • I have fibromyalgia and dealing with chronic pain and fatigue has made losing weight difficult. I turn to junk food when my body hurts, so altering that behavior thus far has been the hardest to work past. I'm wanting to change my diet gradually and this article has been really helpful.

  • Yep, same here. My husband is 5'9" and hasn't ever been above 145lbs his entire life, whereas I haven't been 140lbs since high school! It's been a challenge for us to find a middle ground since he can eat whatever he wants and I'm trying to track my food/nutrition.

  • Fellow mom here with a similar problem. I have a rule that after 11:30am I cut off my caffeine intake. I hardly drink soda, but I drink a lot of coffee (generally 3-5 cups in the morning) so it's important that it's out of my system by bedtime. I've tried decaf coffee but it has a placebo affect of keeping me up anyways.…

  • All of you are so incredible. Chronic pain is so hard to cope with, especially when it limits a person's ability to become healthier. I've had pain and chronic illness issues since I was in my teens (initially diagnosed with fibromyalgia and depression, then more recently hypothyroidism, CFS, and chronic anemia). A few…
    in Is anyone else battling a chronic pain condition Comment by hugrabug January 2016
  • I finally joined MFP after months of sitting on the fence. Most of my friends who swore by it didn't have health issues similar to mine (fibromyalgia, hypothyroidism, CFS, depression, and chronic anemia) so it's a huge relief to see there are some Spoonies here too! It's incredibly difficult for me to exercise without…
