Haven t had yogurt in awhile, I think I'm gonna put some in my fridge. :-)

I was just diagnosed with Fibro and I'm not sure what kind of exercise I can do. Running is OUT!!! This caused so much pain I couldn't walk. It's been three weeks and I'm just now starting to recover. So what kind of exercise can I do? I"m not going to lose weight without exercising so Help please. I'm new to this and though I've tried to do some research nothing tells you what kind of exercise you can do.

lately I've been doing plain greek yogurt with vanilla protein powder in it, some frozen blueberries and chia seed.

I will also have sautéed onions and peppers and eat them with either ground beef or chicken and a few splashes of hot sauce.

Yep, we've all been there. Repeatedly. If I could control my urge to eat, there would have never been a need for wls.

When I regain my senses after bringing the wrong food into the house, I make myself throw whatever is left into the trash. And I even empty the bags as I do, because I know I might try to take a part full bag back out of the trash later. For me, it's always worry and stress that send me looking for a food fix. Another strategy I use is to immediately put whatever into the freezer, portioned. Sometimes the psychology works, sometimes not. It's an ongoing struggle for me.

Fortunate;y for me, potatoes tend to make me very sick very quickly, so stuff like chips are "self-limiting" - hehe! But even though I know that they are gonna make me wish I was dead, from time to time, I still just have to eat them.

It's been a miserable winter around these parts - and get this, two of the three bridges I could use to cross the river and get to the Y for exercise have been closed or under serious construction work for over a year, making the trip difficult and sometimes impossible. Easy excuse for me to sit in my house rather than brave the ice and snow.

I have come to detest most weight loss "reality" shows, because they are misleading in so many ways and make my life miserable when some well-intended person wants to "talk" to me about my weight issues using one of those programs as their source of knowledge. And it always annoys when the Biggest Loser finale showcases people who have magically lost their loose skin somehow.  Sure wish I could.
