Awesome weight loss.

I have less migraines since I gave up artificial sweeteners. I now use Stevia in my coffee and real sugar in my tea. No more diet sodas or sugar free products either. It has made dieting a challenge though. I do feel better since the change.

So far I have only been prescribed skelaxin to take at nights. I am seriously thinking about asking for something else though. I have days that I am in pain all day then others where the pains come and go, usually mild. Not sure if I want to try OTC / herbals or what? Any suggestions?

I find that I can walk, ride a recumbent bike and swim (if the water is REALLY warm - which is rare); that's all I have found that does not hurt. Any others suggestions would be helpful. What types of other exercises do you all try?

I have a tendency to have flare ups with rainy days high humidity in the heat of summer. I am so dreading this coming winter as I cannot stand the cold.

I am fairly new with my official diagnosis; but I have been prescribed skelaxin to help me sleep at night. It does work, however I am finding recently I am having more pain during the day and am thinking of asking for something more. I do try ibuprofen which sometimes helps. My job entails a lot of driving during the day…

Finally got to make these; still in the oven but my hisband, son and grand-daughter were fighting over licking the bowl if thats any sign of how good they are I may not get one when they come out of the oven. I have to forego the whipped topping (allergic). Can hardly wait.

Try to snag a walk during your lunch breaks and qhen to get to work park really far away from the door; take the stairs up & down. I snag every bit that I can but some of this cannot be logged as such but I know that I'm making a point of moving a bit more. Good luck.

I pack pre-measured crackers (ususally flavored wheat thins) and laughing cow cheese wedges. I also like to quarter apples and pre-pre oranges so that they are handy and ready when I want them. I like single serve tuna as well. My cheat sweet is 6 midgie tootsie rolls per 12 hr. shift.

These sound DELISH.... now I want a cupcake.

I try to be honest about every BLT (bite, lick, taste); sometimes I find it challenging especially when I eat a meal out and cannot find it on the foods list. I have to try to guesstimate at it.

It's been several years for me but when my son was little he had asthma ( I did not smoke while pregnant); I made the decision to not smoke inside my house or vehicles. It was some really cold, wet smoke breaks that finally got to me before I discovered it just wasnt worth being out in the cold wet air for. That and they…

Keep telling yourself that muscle weighs more than fat. When you have more muscle you will be toned and more solid. Muscle mass is healthier than fat.
