    • Close Parents of Children with ADHD

      My eldest son was recently diagnosed with ADHD. We had known for most of his schooling so far that he has "quirks" and tried various behavioral strategies, they didn't work for him, thus the psych and diagnosis. The past year was really overwhelming for me and my son, who is 9.

    • Close Obesity

      I'm hoping to find motivation and support as I try to find the healthier size for myself. I have been significantly overweight since I was 8, and am constantly trying to become healthier! Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

      Treatments

      Alli Somewhat Helpful
      It did help, but the side effects weren't enjoyable for me!
      Breast Feeding Somewhat Helpful
      the breastfeeding was not for weight loss, but because I have nursed all my kids because I thought it was best for them. I think the fact that I am up every few hours at night does help weight loss, since I don't spend more than 4 hours at night asleep, so my body doesn't shut down as much. Its always going!!!
      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      It's hard to stay motivated to work out, it gets so boring sometimes!!! I still use workout videos, because I really hate going to the gym. My chunky self sticks out so much among the other folks!
      Weight Watchers Working / Worked
      So far I've lost 60 pounds. But I have another 60 to go to get to my goal weight, and I seem to have hit a rocky patch. I have been stuck at the same weight and size for 3 months now.
