Would you please share what changes you made to diet and exercise that worked. The information on this is a bit all over the place. I know everyone is different, but it would be nice to hear what was effective. Thanks! Diane E

@dengland, What helped me the most was eliminating processed and fast foods from my daily diet and staying away from sugar or at least being more conscious about the amount I was eating in different foods/fruits. Also eliminating a lot of inflammatory foods, basically just eating healthier. For the exercise, which I still am doing, I ride a recumbent exercise bike that uses both arms and legs at least 30 to 60 minutes a day along with a few stretching type exercise. Here's some information that may be helpful on the topic.
