Does anyone here have Fibromyalgia?
Just wanted to know if anyone was going through the weight loss thing and also have Fibro? What do you do for exercise? I was diagnosed in 2006 (although I suffered for 6 years before someone would finally listen to me.) I am absolutely certain a big part of my weight gain is from the Fibro and fatigue, etc. Anyway, if you…

Anyone use Phentermine and have it not help?
My doctor prescribed me Phentermine a while back. I had to stop taking it when I had surgery in June and I just recently started back on it last week. Aside from giving me a little boost in energy, it doesn't seem to help curb my appetite at all. Has anyone else had a similar issue with it? It's just frustrating. I don't…

Gastric sleeve vs. bypass, vs, lap band?
Has anyone had the gastric sleeve procedure done? My doctor outright said to me she wants me to do Gastric bypass. Um, yeah she's not the best doctor and I'm currently trying to find a new one. Every time I go in there, no matter what it's for, she harps on me about my weight. 2 weeks ago I went in for a sinus infection…

Does anyone here not exercise?
I do not want a lecture on the importance of exercise. I KNOW it's important. People need to understand that not everyone CAN exercise. I have Fibromyalgia and arthritis. I do what I can, but I can't do it consistently, no matter how much I want to. So who else here keeps a food diary, but rarely or never exercises?

How do you record Kinect?
Anyone know how to record XBox 360 Kinect workouts/playing? Hubby and I used our gift cards from our birthdays to buy one. So far it's a lot of fun!

Advice: having surgery and not being able to exercise...
On the 14th I have to have a hysterectomy. I won't be able to exercise for at least 4 weeks..maybe 6. Any advice on what I can/should do so I don't gain weight and get back to my old habits?

Healthier foods........... I don't like yogurt, cheese, fish, most veggies and most fruits. There are very few fruits and veggies I like. I have always been a junk food junkie and I hate it. So..any advice for a really really picky eater like me?

Phentermine?
Is anyone else using Phentermine? Is it working for you? My doctor gave it to me...I've been using it for a week. I don't think it's helping all that much. I know it helped my husband when he was on it a lot more. I take it, but I'm still getting hungry. I know it's going to work different for everyone and results are…

Shoes for walking?
My husband and I went walking today. We walked about 2 1/2 miles. By the time we were done I had HUGE blisters on both feet. I was wearing VANs skate shoes. Obviously not made for long walks. Can someone recommend a good walking shoe..something in the 50-70 dollar range? Thanks!

Can someone recommend some low calorie side dishes. There are very few veggies I like and I also have 3 kids who are picky eaters. It's hard finding side dishes my…

Exercises for people with Fibromyalgia?
I don't know if anyone else here has Fibromyalgia, but I do and I find exercising very painful. Right now I've been using our stationary exercise bike about 30 minutes a day. My legs hurt so bad after, but it's worth it. I was just wondering if anyone had any other exercises they knew of for people with Fibromyalgia. I…
