Staying physically active, combined with a healthy diet, can help you avoid gaining weight while on Lyrica. Though you may find it difficult to do a lot of physical activity due to your medical condition, make an effort to do a small amount every day. Going for a brisk walk for 30 minutes once a day or doing a low-impact workout class at your gym can keep those extra pounds off.  You may enlist a friend to go walking with you or attend a workout class together so you are motivated to stay fit. Keep track of how often you exercise in a journal or app so you know you're getting at least 30 minutes of exercise a day. Cycling on a stationary bike or a regular bike is a great workout that is easy on your joints and muscles. Swimming is also great if you do not want to have to put too much stress on your body when you exercise. Take a cycling class at your local gym or invest in a good bike and go for long rides outside. Swim at a local pool at the gym or a community center. High stress levels can cause you to emotionally eat and avoid staying active, leading to weight gain. Managing your stress in a healthy way with yoga or deep breathing exercises can help you stay healthy while on Lyrica.  Take up yoga at a local yoga studio or your gym. You can also try doing yoga at home by following online tutorials or instructor-led videos. Do deep breathing in the morning before you start your day or during your lunch break. Find a quiet, private spot and sit in a comfortable position. Inhale for a count of 5 through your nose and exhale through your nose for a count of 5. Do this for 1-3 minutes until you feel calm. Being well rested can help you manage your appetite and ensure you stay healthy while on Lyrica. Aim to get at least 8 hours of quality sleep a night. Make your bedroom cool, dark, quiet, and comfortable. Have a pre-bed ritual where you do something relaxing like read a book or listen to music. Avoid bright lights or screens right before bed so you get a better night's rest. Try to follow a sleep schedule where you go to bed at the same time every day and wake up at the same time every morning. This will help your body fall into a regular sleep pattern and ensure you get quality sleep each night.
