is feeling OK
I am a financial controller for a disc golf company. I have no living children (son died as a baby). I have a kidney transplant that has left me 75 lbs overweight. I would like to lose the weight, but it is hard with my health problems. I am hoping that this site will give me some support to help me and I can give support back.
My husband and I love to camp, garden, and play with our 5 dogs. I also love to crochet & knit. I also like to play video games when I can find the time.

For my first challenge, I had to spend fifteen minutes learning something new. I choose to learn how to do balloon sculpting. Wow, I had a great time …
I had a kidney transplant 7 years ago and gained 50 pounds due to the prednisone and other transplant drugs. The prednisone left me with muscle weakness so they took me off. I then begain to be very fatigue that has continued for a couple years now. Exercise is very difficult because of the fatigue. The doctor's want me to lose weight to see if that will help my energy level. I need help.
I have just been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I have had severe fatigue for several years. But this year the pain hit me. I went from doctor to doctor. Some focused on the pain, others the fatigue. They all told me they would help, but by the second appt., they'd call and say they are referring me to someone else. I finally found a great doctor. He gave me provigil for the fatigue, but the insurance won't pay for it. It costs over $300. I don't know what to do.
I have fibromyalgia. Stress affects how much pain I feel each day. I want to learn to manage my stress, so I can manage my pain easier and with less drugs.
