SW: 201 CW: 200 No exercise on most days! But I will be getting more active soon!

I will be doing some yoga, at least 30 min I will have to see the calories on that. My main goal today is to do some meal planning for the week. Thats very impotant!!!!!

I'm lost, or confused. I am sick in bed for tonight. I lost one pound this week. Tomorrow I will figure out whatd going on!

My nuerologist put me on Cymbalta, and it's the best I have felt my feet yet! I also take gabapentin and flexoril together, not a very high dose. And my injectible is Betaseron. I wish you good luck; this is the best my feet have been and you really can appreciate the difference, if your happy and you know it, thank your…

I am 2 years old in MS, and for the past year I have been gluten free, chemical free, and trying to eat clean all the way. Going gluten free reduced my inflamation incredibly! For me the first year was when I had to deal with the fatigue, but now with exercise and diet, I only lay down for a few minutes here and there, and…

I like gluten free Cinnamon Chex, and Chocolate Chex. There's also gluten free Rice Krispies, and I make rice Krispy treats out of them. As far as bread goes, I eat the Udi's brand, it comes frozen, and I keep it in the freezer and use two pieces at a time, it lasts me quite a while since I don't eat it every day. There…

You know with all the things we do to feel better it is hard to tell what exactly works, but I am convinced that so far all the changes I have made; diet, exercise, meds; have made me feel incredibly better. There are challenges with eating with other people, or eating out, and it's up to me to stick with what I know is…

Hi there! I had a lot of inflamation in my back because of Multiple Sclerosis, as soon as I was diagnosed I went off of hydrogenated anything. Then I went gluten free. It was easy because there are so many substitutes out there for everything. Now I am practicing clean eating as best I can. I still have half as much dairy,…

I was told by my exercise coach this week, to look at this website, she said it would have exercise's for kettle balls on it! http://www.acefitness.org/exerciselibrary/default.aspx

I recently just had a very bad cold, and one thing I did to feel better was cut out the dairy products, and used almond milk, and coconut milk, instead. that worked well for me, and cut down the mucus level. Also consider local clover honey, if you can.

That is such a great question! I need to figure this out too! I know that my nutritionist keeps telling me to put more protein in my breakfast because I am gluten free. As far as friut versus vegies, I know I eat more fruit, a lot of fruit! I will keep this in mind with my meal planning, I hadn't considered it before.…

Quiting was the hardest thing I did, and I am so proud I did! It's been twelve years, and my advice is: Chew gum, go for a walk, talk to other people who don't smoke, eat an apple at your worst craving time, get cinnamon altoids, or cinnamon gum, breathe deep, do different things, and hang in there. It's worth it. I got to…

I love this question! I really like my hands...funny, but I think they look cool! I also like the positive changes I have seen in my body! Great question!:happy:

I'm really glad you shared your story, it really conects us all to you! Your incredible! Thanks! :smile:

Sparky Rita!

Great question! I just bought a belt on Monday! I picked out a very fasionable leather belt that I really liked, and it was on sale when I went to pay for it, and that made me very happy! first belt I have bought in at least ten years! cool!

I am going to try all of these ideas! They are great! Thank you!
