Good Morning,

Wouldn't you know I forgot to get on that blasted scale this morning lol. I wanted to see if anything was happening and I was in such a hurry I forgot. lol.

Whats shakin w/you all ?

Did I tell you all that I haven't gone back to that woman councelor, she said she treats eating disorders but personally I think she was just learning on me and my time. All she would tell me was what kind of diets I should be on. First week she shunned Atkins, two weeks later she suggests I go on a Low Carb diet then it was get all the bad foods out of your house... well no kidding. Almost like she was working on the symptoms and not the cause. It was frustrating so I stopped going. Then she says to me during my last visit.. Oh.. you love to eat don't you ??????? That was the straw. Oh well what can you do, live and learn.

How's your tuesday going ? TOM is approaching and I'm snarving so I'm gonna get me some Tky sausage and coffee. BBL

Good Morning Gang!

Leenie - I wondered about your meetings with the counselor. now I know! thanks for telling us what was going on. I can't believe you forgot to get on the scale. I have to MAKE myself not get on it every morning. Hopefully when you do remember to weigh you will be pleased. Did you happen to get on that treadmill last night? I've been draggin the last few days - guess its TOM - not really sure but didn't exercise yesterday or today.

I got up when the alarm went off at 5 this morning but my head felt like it was gonna pop so I reset the alarm to 6 and went back to sleep. My head was much better when I got up, but I feel bad for not exercising. Maybe I can get a walk in after supper, but that is usually impossible. we will see how it goes.

I think I finally got my computer back to "normal". I sure hope so anyway. Got my computer wiz brother over here yesterday and took care of a few glitches! I love my brother!

Cin - WOW - your ww meeting sounds awesome! sounds like you had a good time and racked up on some awards. how cool! how ya feeling? mom is coming in tomorrow right? got that house all neat and clean! You are in my prayers! keep us posted.

I went after work yesterday to check on my friend that had gastric bypass surgery yesterday morning. Boy did she look ROUGH! I decided right then and there, that even if somebody handed me the money for something like that, I would only do that as a LAST RESORT in order to save my life. It seems pretty drastic to me, but she (and the doc) felt she wouldn't live much longer with her health problems if she doesn't get some weight off, so hopefully it will all work out for her.

Liz - sounds like you're counting down to your off days from work! don't blame ya girlie! 6 nights in a row sounds loooooooooooooong! hang in there girlie! hugs!

I will check back later. Hope everyone is having a good day and gets a minute to check in. We are wondering where some of our gang is hanging out?

hugs,
Cathy

Good morning all

Haven't been here in some days.....feeling better these days.....I do notice.....when I am feeling better I seem to do more cleaning at home.....last night....my DH walked into the kitchen....he was surprised the kitchen was really clean.....I had cleaned it up.....he said it was spotless.....I had even vacuumed the floor.

I am taking SAM-e 3 times a day before meals & 5-HTP a half hour before breakfast & half an hour before dinner....it can have a side effect of an appetitite depressant....the 5-HTp can....the last 2 evenings....I couldn't finish dinner.....I was full.

Leenie.....I have been to counsellors in the past.....none of them have ever said I need to be treated for an eating disorder....although I have a weight problem.....not all counsellors are equal.....you have to watch who you go to.

Hi Cathy.
