    • Close Eating Disorders

      I have had an eating problem my whole life, always been overweight. Two years ago I lost 35 lbs, held on to it for about a year and have been fighting my overeating ever since. Mainly it's the bingeing that is putting the weight back on. Just one month ago I was back to 30 lb.weight loss, but with Thanksgiving I haven't stopped bingeing. My love are carbs and sweets. I want to stop this behavior. Need help.

    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      Binge eating, one mistake and it's doesn't stop for days. Lost 35 lbs. 2 years ago, only a start for what I could lose, but have been proud of that success, but for about 6 months I have been playing games with that lose. Gaining, losing over and over, and am now on a constant binge of about 5 days which is doing real damage, I really don't want. Desperate for help.

      Treatments

      Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
      Staying with healthy foods, low carb and no sweets works beautiful and makes me happy.
      Eat Less Working / Worked
      Works when I'm willing to think about it, instead of mindless eating.
      Wellbutrin Not Working
      Taken for about 2 years, but for the last 5 months I don't see it helping, I'm not sure I should be taking it if it's not working
      Weight Watchers Working / Worked
      Many, Many years ago I lost 70 lbs with weight watchers, reaching goal, and managed to keep it of for 4 years. I stop going due to serious problems at home. I am many miles away from a meeting at this time and although it's been years I still think I should have been home instead at WW, and that's 40 years ago. Wonder about the on line membership, perhaps I should do that.
    • Open Food Addiction

      Food addiction has been my life for many, many years. Two years ago I lost 35 lbs, but it's the binging, food addiction that wants to put that weight back on. Over this Thanksgiving I had family visiting for 4 days. That means buying, preparing, menus, and big time stress. It shouldn't be that way as I love my family, but because of my food problems I don't control well, I'm a mess. Need help.

    • Open Obesity

      I belong in the obesity community having been over weight all my life. Although I am a senior my health is good except for the effects of being so overweight. Border line sugar, aches and pains.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Weight Watchers Working / Worked
      Only twice was I ever at my goaled weight, at age 30 and age 40. Weight watchers and Dr. program helped.
      Walking Working / Worked
      2 years ago I added daily walking with my dogs and proportional eating lots of fruits and veggie low on the carbs and sugar. Also took Wellbutrin for the first time. Lost 35 lbs. Many more to go but fighting putting pack on with binging.
