Guest guest Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi, I'm a Fibro dieter to be. This week I've been working on taking my vitamins on a regular basis. This weekend starts the 'diet' of sweets 2 times a week, I'm going to get it down to one time. I was hooked on Starbucks double chocolate chip and am down to 2 a week so that has to change even more. Meantime, I'm working on eating more veggies and fruit. I'm a vegetarian and don't eat any nightshades and I've been on that diet about, oh, 18 years or so. My goal is to eat as much fresh fruits and vegetables as possible and eat 6 small meals a day with sweets only 1 time a week. I did this about 15 years ago with great success. It was for my reactive hypoglycemia and I 'inadvertently' lost 32 pounds the first year. I stabilized after that. Now, I need to lose about twice that much and my ability to walk everyday isn't there yet. Hopefully I'll get there. I was going to do this over a month ago but my heart decided to pull a bad number on me (I'm blaming Fibro for good reason but it's a long story). Now, I'm back to doing the right things for my body. Funny how hard that can be. Good-luck on your side, Jane Subject: Re: Anyone dieting? I am doing a diet (life change). It would be nice to have a support group for fibro dieters.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Heck, is that all? Way to go! I have the first 10, last 10 and middle 50 to go. :-( I wasn't a fatty before Fibro. But I did gain some weight when I married at the ripe old age of 30. (okay, that's not old but I thought so at the time) Hugs, Jane ******************************** Subject: Re: Re: Anyone dieting?

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 So am I Heidi Marie.. It would be a great idea for a group.. I am not so much trying to lose weight, although I am overweight.. Because of all the medication I am on (20 in all) about half of them cause weight gain and I cannot exercise, although I do stretching exercises but I am going through a diet change at the moment and changing to a lot of fruit and veges, lean meat and grains for fibre...

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Yes. I think its the only thing that keeps some of my joint pain at bay and my energy levels from hitting rock bottom, although thats still a fight. I'm beginning to think that for me, gluten-is very bad for me. I've eliminated many things or at least have cut way down as often as possible. Chocolate, caffeine, fast foods, bread, sugary stuff, pasta, etc., It may not be the answer but helps. I guess I realized in alot of ways that I always felt worse after eating than before eating-so I started to look at the things I was eating and it has helped to some degree.
