I was diagnosed with fibromyaliga in 1997.I have osteoarthritis and have been told I need a knee replacement.I have spurs on my spine from the arthritis.A diabetic and also have seizures.I have been on lots of diets without much success.It is very hard for me to exercise with all my health problems and staying tired all the time from the fibromyliga.I am about 130 lbs over weight.I would really like to hear from anyone with ideals that might help.I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Neve. That is tough, having all those things going on in one body! I have tried so many different diets, and was so confused as to what to even try. Never has there been so many diets and so much info. One says low fat, one vegetarian,one protein and on and on. I found I don't do well with a diet heavy in carbs, or protein. I have opted for the diet called The Formula and it is wonderful. I have lost 15 pounds since the 1st of Feb., and find it really easy to stay on. There is no strange food, just normal types. Having good results, when on some of the others I lost 2 pounds in a month. Feel great as well. Lots of energy and for someone with FM that is a rarity (lol).

Good luck on whatever you try. On the FM board, we have one lady doing ww and another doing Sugar Busters and the others I don't know the name of their diets.

If you want to, come on over to the FM forum.
