Hi Drizzle68: I'm 54 with FM, hypothyroid, and unconfirmed Celiac disease (because I refuse to gluten up for a test after several years of eating wheat free). There's a really good thread that's pinned in the 'stickies' of the Dieting With Obstacles forums. It's called Fibromyalgia, I suggest you take a look there first. Lots of good info and support although, as you know, it can be difficult to keep up with social media when you aren't feeling your best. I take it you are in the UK as it looks like your weight is in stone? Hang in there. Exercise is not as important to weight loss as you might think. As the saying goes it's 80/20

You might also want to join MyFitnessPal (free online forums like here) and join the 'Fitness With Fibromyalgia' Forum. I'm on there too and there seems to be a bit more chat activity there. Lots of information, scientific studies links, personal experiences, and support. Here's the link:

I will try to remember to check these forums a bit more often in case you come back for a look
