Just looking for someone to talk too....

Hello all, A year ago I weighed 187 lbs(down from 238). Right now I am at 228. I am a 42 year old female. I am 5'5". I had been trying to love weight last year and then long about Christmas time, I got off track. Latley I am so far off track and am desperatly wanting to get back on. I have had some family problems this Spring( my son and his girlfriend told me she was pregant and they got married 3 days later.) They stayed with us for a while. My younger son has had some major fights with his Dad, fights with my husband,etc.... I won't go into it all. I know stress may be a factor but things have calmed down a little but all I still do is eat!!!! I am not even hungry and I eat and eat. All I think about is food and what things there are to eat in the house. Sorry to bother you all but I just want to lose weight so bad and thought maybe someone could have some suggestions. Thanks!

Re: Just looking for someone to talk too....

My first suggestion is to avoid blaming others. The entire WORLD could be coming to an end but what we next stick into our mouths is our decision alone. As soon as you can blame someone, you absolve yourself and thus responsibility gets shifted and results go up in smoke.

Forget the rest of the universe is there; your diet is between YOU AND YOU.

We want to keep our weights at a desirable state whether we are facing glorious happiness or miserable doom.

Remember right now how bad you feel getting back that 51 pounds and NEVER FORGET IT. Each day say to yourself, aloud if you wish, that "I will never again weigh what I weigh today even if my entire family falls apart."

You might as well face imminent disaster at a good weight rather than at an obese one!

Re: Just looking for someone to talk too....

I find that depression causes me to eat and for the past 2 years eating has been my support group! I was told today by doctor that I must loose weight for my back. I know this is going to be one of the hardest things I have ever done because eating and smoking I feel keep me somewhat sane!!! And now he wants me to quit both. Maybe we could help each other.

Hi I know how you feel. It is nice to hear I am not alone. I have been trying again and I do good for a day or so and then start eating again, it seems like a never ending cycle. I am not even hungry and I eat!!! The worse time is during the evening. What is your worst time?
