I have fibromyalgia and just try to move more each day. I like yoga when I can fit it in. I have tried to get more sleep but that doesn’t work for me. Sometimes it seems the more I sleep the more I hurt. I think that is because we don’t get into the deep sleep like everyone else does and I just toss and turn. The doctor…

I to suffer from fibromyalgia and have been struggling with my weight. I have been trying to keep my food under control. Working out has been another challenge all together. For the past few month I have not been able to find the motivation to push through the pain to workout. I know I just need to do it but I always find…

I work from home as an outpatient coder. Some days it is harder being at home all day. Fee free to add me.

I am in Ohio close to Akron here.

I have an appointment with my doctor on the 30th of this month so I am making a list of all the supplements that I think may be beneficial and taking it to my appt with me. Then I am going to talk to my pharmacist. I am only on topamax for migraines and birth control so I don’t really have to worry about to many drug…

I am a mom of 4 that works full time and going to school full time. Finding time to workout has been a challenge but I am trying to fit it in wherever I can. Feel free to add me.

I will have to look into magnesium as well. I have a list started that I am going to do s little research on and magnesium was on that and so was ribose. Thanks for the info.

I will have to look into that. I am looking to switch my dc the one I have now has not been much help. He didn’t believe me for the longest time. Never thought about the pharmacist though.

I have thought about doing some research on supplements and incorporating those into my regimen. At this point I am open to just about anything.

I have sent a friend request. I don’t blame you for not wanting to cut those things out to support your friends. There are certain foods that I am not quite ready to give up completely yet either. Hopefully you an find something that helps.

I have not found one yet that didn’t give me major side effects since I had my last baby. It is not worth the pain relief for the side effects. I am slowly trying to change my diet and add exercise to see if that will help. I am thinking of giving up on meds and trying supplements.

I was on Lyrica ( which worked great) before having my last bat but since I had him I can’t take it due to side effects. Lately my doctor has had me try antidepressants lexapro and elavil. My doctor made a comment at my last visit that he doesn’t prescribe narcotics for fibro. I told him that is not what I am looking for.…

I have fibromyalgia and know your pain there. Feel free to add me. I also suffer from migraines and am on meds to prevent those. Everything I have tried for FM as far as meds has given me bad side effects since I had my last baby a year ago so meds have not helped. I am trying to figure out how to mange this on my own. It…

I too have fibromyalgia and have been trying to figure out what helps. Going to have to find a new doctor soon as mine is giving up on me. All the meds he has tried I have side effects from. The last one helps me sleep but causes constant pain. Not sure I am ok with that trade off. We are trying to find things to lessen my…

Feel free to add me. I am back at it after losing over 40 lbs before getting pregnant. Now that the little one is almost one I am starting to get back in the wagon of logging and trying to exercise. Will offer support however I can.

Fee free to add me. Had my 4th almost a year ago and really struggling to lose the weight. Have lost motivation to work out between the fatigue of sleepless nights and pain from fibromyalgia. Would be nice to have some fitness friends to help support and get support from.

Anyone can feel free to add me. I am trying to lose the baby weight that I put on. I had success before the baby and now struggling a little because I lost all the friends I had before.

Congrats on the new baby. It can be hard to find the time with a new little one to exercise but you can get creative if you have to. I am a mom of 4 with my youngest 11 months. I haven't been able to exercise as much as I have wanted to due to my fibromyalgia and migraines but have managed to still lose an little and not…

Welcome and good luck. I just had blood work done yesterday to see if I have hypothyroidism. All of a sudden I have been unable to lose weight along with many other symptoms. You can do this. Take it one day at a time.

I suffer from chronic migraines and fibromyalgia. I have to find a balance between what is enough movement to help but not to much to trigger a flare up. Since having my son 10 months ago finding the strength to workout has been hard. Both issues have been very bothersome due to lack of sleep and caring for him, so very…

That can keep you motivated. Also remember it will take a little time to get your body back. You will have hard days and easy days but…

Had my fourth last September and trying to lose what I put on. I had lost over 40 lbs before getting pregnant and only gained about 25 of that back during pregnancy. I am looking to lose about 50lbs to get to my goal weight though. Feel free to add me.

I work from home and some days find it hard to find the motivation to work out. I have 4 kids that don't help either. Feel free to add me.

I like to keep my friends to a minimum so I can I interact with them. I like the motivation portion of having friends. I think others just like seeing a high number of friends. This experience is what you make of it and if you want supportive friends then remove the ones that you don't want. We are all adults and should be…
