Hi shirley, I'm pretty new to this site but the ladies on the fibro thread #14 are wondrful ladies, albeit in varing degrees of pain.
You may be interested in knowing a lady on the sugar busters site has lost 80 lbs and her FIBRO WAS RELEAVED. How wonderful is that? I'm hoping that although my weight loss is slow that to keep on losing and if I could exercise and sleep I could beat this like she did. I'm not going to give up.Don't you either. If only one or two people feel better dieting on low glycemic/low carbs/hi fiber, I will hope that there is some relief for me too.
write to us on #14 so we can do this together.
best of luck
