    • Close Food Addiction

      I have abstained from sugar, except three pieces of fresh fruit a day since January 13, 2008. Feels like getting sober all over again. now am having bad craving. Though not for sugar, just to eat. dome days better than others, staying pretty healthy with which foods, just way too much,Out of control feeling.

      Treatments

      Overeaters Anonymous (OA) Somewhat Helpful
      went when i was early in recovery, couldn't handle all the talk about food, couldn't handle the HOW plan. now when I was willing to go back and try again, they are far and few between, so it is prohibitive from where I live right now.
    • Close High Blood Pressure

      Recently had a hike in blood pressure that is consistently elevated. Experienced a hike awhile back when I worked in a stressful environment, but that changed when the job did. I do not want to go the medication route so asked my doctorr to help me deal with it by lifestyle changes. All of my other important numbers are perfect or better. I am overwieght, but very successfully changing that pattern now.
