The Fibromyalgia Experiment

Trying to go without refined sugar for a month has really got me thinking about my body image, & it’s only been a week.  It’s so frustrating trying to lose weight with fibromyalgia. I’m so exhausted & in so much pain that I honestly believe upping my exercise regiment would do me in. My thyroid has it’s own idea of what it wants done.  I’m lucky that I don’t need to lose a lot of weight.  I probably don’t need to lose any, it’s just the number that scares me whenever I get on the scale. I really need to stop looking at the scale & just concentrate on eating healthier. I’m frustrated that I don’t feel like I can exercise more without hurting myself.  That just leaves cutting out food.  One of my friends swears that not eating after 8 pm at night.  I’ve heard tale that Oprah never eats after 6 or 7.  This is something that I can at least try, although I’m a bit of an insomniac so that is like cutting out  my lunch.  I will try to get my meals in earlier in the day & see if it makes a different. I guess the rest of the experiment will determine where I am weight wise.  How do you lose weight when you are too tired to care?
