hmmm,you dont have to eat that regurly if you dont want to, someone once suggested a pattern of something small in the morning and something small in the eve(like a bowl of pasta) if you do this for a while even if your not eating properly your body knows that it will be getting food and if your not eating that much to begin with you wont need to throw it up!?!?!?!?!?!!!

I agree, small portions are the best. And if you can eat more frequently during the day, it will be easier for you. I have a nutritionist's plan that requires 6 intakes per day. I do my best, and it improved GRADUALLY over time. My doctor told me to start with two tablespoons of oatmeal every night before bedtime. Then she gradually had me increase the amount. The key is small gradual steps. It's not so much, two tbs. of oatmeal. (By the way, that was two years ago, and I eat 1 and a half cups of oatmeal every night.) It works.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
