Weight Loss and Fibromyalgia: Can it be Done? Would it Help?
This Monday, Dec 12th, 6-7:30 PM
Do you feel like you'll never be able to get control of your weight because of your fibromyalgia?
Join our December webinar with Fibromyalgia Coach, Tami Stackelhouse, and learn why it's not your fault!
Tami will be sharing some underlying issues unique to fibromyalgia that cause us to gain weight and have trouble losing it again. She will cover how to discuss those issues with your doctor and other support people in order to successfully lose your extra weight; she'll also give you tips on what actually works for fibromites. She even has some studies to share that have been done regarding fibromyalgia, diet, and weight loss!
Weight loss is a little known secret to reducing fibromyalgia pain. Get the facts and find some hope!
If you can't make the webinar, be sure to join our private web group so that you will have access to the recording after the event!

November Meeting Recordings Posted
 | | Jennifer Hofmann, Inspired Home Office |
Jennifer Hofmann, from Inspired Home Office, spoke at our November 19th meeting about how the first priority in getting things done is practicing good self-care, including how we talk to ourselves. It is the fuel that allows us to then focus on our project or tasks.

On November 14th, we had The Practical Fibromite with "Holiday-Related Stress and Self-Care." Michelle shared some wonderful, down-to-earth and easily implemented suggestions for us that are sure to keep our holidays more stress-free. This means fewer flares, less fatigue and more fun. Who wouldn't want that?
