Hi Jerry, I was diagnosed 18 years ago with Fibro. Same as you I have seen many doctors. Some that didn\’t believe anything was wrong some that did. Over these years I have gained 40 pounds and have tried everything to lose it, but it won\’t budge. My question is have you change your diet in any way. Like no red meats or gluten for an example. I have kind of bounced around with different things but don\’t see any results. My fibro has caused me so much fatigue that i never have the energy to excerise. Among lots of other things.
Thanks, Anna
ANSWER:
Anna; I did change my diet some after starting my recovery from fibro. I used to eat whatever comforted me, but I also gained weight. I started eating more fruits and vegetables. In the western states and some other states there is an coop organization called “Bountiful Baskets” which helps people get wonderful baskets of food weekly. We pay about $15.00 for a basket of fruit and another of vegetables. What a wonderful way to get fresh things that are much cheaper than other outlets and taste great. I lost about 30 lbs after starting to eat better and getting more exercise. I also have limited my sugar intake and only have a small amount of chocolate.
Jerry
