  • Hi Ann, I’m in the UK and in the process of trying to get a diagnosis of Arachnoiditis. Currently I don’t even have a specialist as my previous rheumatologist said he could not do anything else for me. Exercise wise, I walk our staffie dog every day but only for around 10/15 minutes. It’s exhausting. I don’t work any more…

  • I'm finding eating out hard too. Recently I've started using protein diet shakes at lunch time with fruit snacks during the day. I've actually found that if I want to eat pizza, I have it, but I have my shake for lunch or dinner depending on the time I eat. I loose better eating a higher protein diet.

  • Hi, I have pcos and EDS Hypermobility Type and chronic back problems. I too find it incredibly hard to loose weight. So far, I've found that trying to lower my calorie intake helps the most. I've set mfp to sedentary activity and 2lb a week loss. This gives me 1200 calories a day and so far I've lost 3 lbs. I weigh myself…

  • How are we all doing today? This changing weather is killing me! If any of you fancy it, Manchester university are doing a study on how weather effects our pain. Look for 'Cloudy with a chance of pain'. It'll ask you some questions and then send you to an app called uMotif. Enjoy!

  • I'm currently still doing WW. I started MFP at the weekend after someone recommended it. Being a sucker for sweet stuff, I'm finding that I can still have it as long as it fits in my calories and I just cut back on other bits. I could never get my head around why I needed the extra 49 points at WW. I preferred it as pro…
