    • About Me

      I've been struggling w/my weight for longer than I can remember. After riding the "losing & gaining" roller coaster for many years, I am more than 100 lbs overweight. I'm gaining support here & beginning a new plan for myself. I enjoy shopping & spending my free time with family & friends. I've just started a new job in executive moving/relocation services and in a way I feel like I'm beginning a new chapter in my life.

      Hi there, I was so happy to see you back!!!! I am so sorry that you lost your Grandma. I understand how you feel. My grandmother is 80 now and although in good health I cherish my moment with her because unfortunately she won't live forever. It brought tears to my eyes when I read your journal. Big Hugs and glad to see you back and on the diet again for the 8,000,000,000 time. I am right along with you!!!! Hugs and maybe we will both make a weight loss goal this year!!! Denise

    • Close Obesity

      I've always been heavy. I lost 50 lbs in 1999 and since then I gained it back plus another 70. That began the journey that has left me extremely overweight. I struggle with compulsive/emotional binge eating. I use food as my crutch when I'm happy, sad, depressed, lonely, etc. I also suffer from depression which I've been treating for several years. Luckily, I have that 100% under control now, but it wasn't always that way.

      Treatments

      NutriSystem Not Working
      Didn't like the food so I didnt stick with it.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I have a gym membership...it works when I use it (which is about twice a year...LOL).
    • Close Eating Disorders

      Treatments

      Celexa Working / Worked
      Working well.
    • Open Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Relative

      I lost my grandmother on October 9, 2009. I was very close to her & miss her so much.

      Treatments

      Crying Not Working
      Crying seems to make me feel worse; but sometimes you just cant help letting it out.
      Remembering Somewhat Helpful
      Talking Working / Worked
      Talking with my Mom about my Grandmother always makes me feel better. We have some good memories, but also we were with her at the end. It's an experience we shared together & it's helpful to be able to talk with each other about it.
