I have weighed between 120 and 125 most all my life. Then crept up to 135 between 2000 and 2006 due to the loss of mother first then daddy and sister (only sibling) had me in court for 4 years. I had lost down to 110 taking care of my daddy for 6 years but that is not standard for me. Then recently I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia arthritis and guess what I am taking to keep the pain away, prednisone. Not my favorite friend, this is where the weight just jumped on me and I am miserable and don't want to keep buying some kind of new wardrobe. So I feel I'm on my way to let prednisone know I won't let it have a hold on me and pray that I can be off of it soon. I am taking 7mgs right now...I also have emphysema which keeps me from doing all the active exercises and work that I use to do. I have been diagnosed with this for about 6 years. It is hard to find exercises for the lung issue....and ideas? Thanks for listening...
