Hug
Thanks for your encouraging words about me starting smoking again. It's nice to know you understand (and the others, too.) I thought everyone would tell me to just quit again, but they didn't. Such supportive, unconditionally accepting people here! Thank you!
Hug
Stay safe! The rain is always welcomed here, just in a little smaller doses than we've seen (smiling). Wishing you a grand weekend!

Hug
I'm glad you liked my hug/or post to your journal entry! I hope you continue to have a great day. I don't have much planned yet. I'm going to pick up hubby for lunch (at home.) Also, I'm going to walk for 45 minutes along the river. It's supposed to be a high of 72 degrees today. Perfect for walking. You take care, my sweet and lovely friend.
I’m With You
I'm with you "crazy". Have the best day possible. hugs, Sue
Flower
Love your cat!

Close Food Addiction
I didn't know this community existed as I signed up for Obesity and Diet and Weight Maintenance. But clearly this is a place I belong. Upon turning 60, the term "morbidly obese" took on new meaning and I know I must address this at long last. I've been fat since I was 9 with the exception of two years in my adulthood. I'm a binger and sweets are my biggest weakness though I can make something from nothing when it comes to food.
Treatments
- Suzanne Somers Diet Not Working
- Just changed the category of food that I ate uncontrollably from!
- Weight Watchers Working / Worked
- Lost 120 pounds on this and did fine maintaining for a while. Then gained back 70 pounds before I came to my senses and decided I had to act.
Close Obesity
I'm obese. End of story. Have been for the majority of my 60 years on planet earth. Trying to get to a point where they won't need a five gallon container for my ashes.
Treatments
- Weight Watchers Somewhat Helpful
- I worked when I worked it, but the expense makes me reluctant to go back. Of course, how "costly" is morbid obesity? I'm trying this to see if it will be helpful.
- Atkins Diet Not Working
- Just didn't seem much healthier than being fat!
