      From OnlyBelieve Yesterday

      Hi Lydia!
      Saw your goal update...very good! You know it took for me to get Tinnitus before I started eating healthier and exercising more. The blessing out of this horrible ringing in my ear is that I have lost weight and started eating better. I pray you continue to do well and stay healthy! God bless you sis! Kerry

    • Close Arthritis

      I had scoliosis as a teen with a brace. My back has been hurting pretty bad since I had a fall. I had surgery on my right knee years ago and my knee would swell up on and off for years. Now I walk a little funny. I thought my curve was just worse. The doctor took xrays and now I have arthritis in my back and knee.The doctor gave me a shot in the right knee and I'm going tom physical therapy to strengthen both knees and back. I start water aerobics next week.

      I use to be fit for 35 years. I ran, jogged played basketball, swam, danced artistically. I was a recreation therapist for twenty years. I was able to eat anything and everything(very bad habits).I gained about 100 lbs in 10 years due MAJOR FALLS AND ACCIDENTS AND STILL EATING LIKE I USE TO. I managed to lose 40 lbs two years ago. It is much harder for me now because of spine, knee and foot injuries.I receive epidural injections and need more surgery.

    • Open Food Addiction

      Due to injuries and food allergies, I cannot control my eating compulsion. It starts at night and I can't stop. I ruin all the days fitness goals I acheive. It's winter and because of pain, I'm up at night. I use to control myself better when I lived alone, I would not buy the tempting things. My brother moved back in my apt and its been real hard. I'm addicted to the foods I'm allergic to and I break out in hives.

      Treatments

      Overeaters Anonymous (OA) Not Working
      I really tried twice but honest, some of the people are mean in my area.
    • Open Loneliness

      What can I say. I am very lonely. I live with my brother and I am coming to terms with the fact that he doesn't like me much. He has bipolar schizophrenia and he can't live alone. I am his caregiver and he resents me because I am much younger than him. I have had a lot of hurts from bad relationships and a verbally abusive alcoholic mother. I suffer from low self esteem, trust issues, fear of rejection and one son that ignores his mother. Need I say more!(lol)

      Treatments

      Helping Others Working / Worked
      I reach out to the sick and shut in thru a Nursing Home Ministry. I know how it feels to be lonely.
