    • Interests

      I love to cook and plan to get back into gardening, sewing, crafts, dancing, billards and take up watercolor painting. This year I also plan on starting my Ebay business.I want to set up my fish tanks again. Planning on getting healthier physically and emotionally in 2008. Getting computer savy again, would help.

    • Close Obesity

      I am an emotional eater who eats enough for a large family at every meal. I have to learn to cook portions for 1 and get off the sofa.

    • Close Diets & Weight Maintenance

      Knowing I am not alone sure does make a difference.

      Treatments

      Counting Calories Working / Worked
      I think in the long term this will be the best best. I can have anything just count it.
      Dancing Working / Worked
      I used to dance for hours and hours almost nightly. No dancing for years now and the weight came and stayed.
      Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
      It is how I eat anyway.
      Eat Less Working / Worked
      The portions are my downfall since I have been less active.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Since dancing is no more I am trying to get off my butt and move. walking and lite weights for now.
    • Open Hepatitis C

      Tested positive for anti-bodies 6 yrs ago. New doctor sending me for treatment in a few months. I didn't think the anti-bodies automatically ment I have Hep-C. What do I know.

    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I can feel myself sliding back into the pit.

    • Open Diabetes Type 2

      My doctor said the results are bad news. 138 fasting blood work with a 2 in some other 3 letter test. He's giving me 6 months to improve through exercise and weight loss. I know nothing about Diabetes. So I am here to learn as much as possible and avoid taking meds for this since meds are likely to be a major part of my life with other ailments I found out I had positively earlier this month. I'm falling apart and I'd like to slow it down or stop it if I can.

    • Open Financial Challenges

      Just poor. I can't get a job due to credit and can't improve my credit without a job.

    • Open Healthy Relationships

      I'm not sure I ever had a healthy relationship and would like to experience one.

      Treatments

      Patience Not Working
      Talking Not Working
      Writing Too Soon to Tell
    • Open Healthy Eating

      Love to eat well and cook.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      It does make a difference. I let myself go for years now I'm back on the right track.
