RE: Re: Anyone dieting/Jane from C

Hi Jane,

Wow, I can admire your wherewithal on being vegetarian. I'm hoping to be

this disciplined. I'm living proof that even a fat fibro girl like me can do it.

I never thought I'd get down from where I've been, but with guts and

determination I have lost some-want to lose more so badly. Hope I can Claudette

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

I am doing a diet (life change). It would be nice to have a support

group for fibro dieters.
