My Weight Loss and Fitness Progress & Fibromyalgia

Well, I am back to counting my points. I haven't been as good at keeping up the tracking but the new Points Plus calculator keeps track of all of my points. I have been faithful to keep up with calculating all that I am eating. I do want to get better at writing everything down. I am determined to do that!

I bought an exercise bike and rode it 5 out of 7 days last week! Thursday, I had to do the grocery shopping and Sunday is my day of rest, my day off! I am really enjoying the bike and do some calisthenics on top of that, as well as strengthening exercise, especially for my abdominals, that are all stretched out from having so many babies. I am determined to get them flatter. I have thought of having a tummy tuck because it is not working as well as I would like. I just am not sure if I want to go through all that pain to do it. Anyway, I am definitely exercising more than I was!! It gives me more energy and has helped some with my fibro pain. That I like.

I wasn't able to go to my meeting last week but I am hoping to get back there soon! It really does help me a lot, helps keep me accountable, as I have shared before.

I am determined that I am not going to look bad in a swimsuit this year! Hopefully, I can reach that goal.

On a side note, a friend of mine just found out that she has fibromyalgia. It really seems like people are being sent in my path, in order for me to minister to them, as one who knows what it is like to have this condition. I love to encourage, so this has been a true blessing to me. Fibro is not fun. But I try to keep a positive attitude by remembering that at least Fibromyalgia is not something that will kill me. It is a nuisance but not deadly. So many people that I know are not so fortunate.

If you have fibromyalgia, have any questions, or just want to vent, leave a comment below! I love to receive comments on my posts! Or if you are in the process of losing weight and want to share about, leave a comment below as well!
