    • Moment of Peace

      From SunniB June 25

      i highly recommend a 12 step program, with focus on self-care rather than 'weightloss'. just liking drinking and drugging (being high or drunk), being overwieght is a symptom not the issue. the harder you work at the symptom, the less headway you make, when the cause goes untreated. it is my personal opinion that drugs (if they work at all) cause their own problems (physically and dependently) in the long run. So, I have given up sugar, with very little else in my program. I weighed 304 in January 2008 and now hover between 260-265. My top weight was 334 at one point. I am much older and have had to go through much changing of attitude and self image. (lots of which I inherited from my parents and grandparents 'trying' to 'save' me from their pain). Stay with it, it is a worthwhile struggle. Sunni B
