    Thanks guys. Thanks for giving your time to participate. I'm so glad to hear that others also find this an interesting topic. I will be more than happy to share my findings with the community here. You guys have been an integral part of the research.

    Thanks for sharing a bit of your story Marie. I also struggle with some of the same issues which is i guess why I am interested in this topic in the first place. Congratulations on your success so far. I wish you all the best for the remainder of your journey.

    I took it... but was slightly confused that there wasn't a choice under Ethnicity for Black people....

    Aren't there any black people in Australia?
    Hi Marianne, so sorry about that. When i first started the study, I was only going to be recruiting from Australia. But yes, we do have black people in Aus. They are our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. I did have an "other" category for ethnicities that fall outside of the ones listed.

    But i do appreciate your valuable feedback as it will help me to ensure that i take into consideration the fact that i may advertise internationally for participants in future studies. So thank you again. I apologise if you felt offended in any way. I promise that it was not intentional. All the best!


    Oh.... I wasn't offended... just curious...

    I entered my weight in pounds (196.2)

    Also, I found the questions quite good...

    Took it! (Though I recently got down to a "healthy" BMI). I too am very interested in the results - I am studying psych in undergrad and considered going on to a graduate program in clinical psych for a while there. Keep us posted!

    be happy to help- link not working- but I'll tell you - BEING MARRIED TO AN *kitten* IS STRESSFUL. I bought healthy food- husband stopped working pretty much as soon as wedding ended. So he's home all day- eats all the healthy food in like 2 days so I come home from work starving, don't feel like shopping & cooking, so we get Lee's fried chicken.
    Get the picture? He EATS all the healthy food so we HAVE to eat junk food - pretty soon I'm 20 lbs heavier, broke & discouraged. I give up- another 20 lbs
    Good news is- HE GAINED OVER 100, he's far closer to death than I (high blood pressure, diabetes) I got a divorce- lost 30 lbs and HE'S STILL GAINING.
    I will be burning calories dancing on his grave
    next survey ...

    Hi guys. Thanks heaps. Its nice to wake up to find that the survey numbers have continued to go up a little over night. Which is fabulous!

    To Wicked,
    the first link doesn't work but if you go down to the third post from the top, you will find a link that does work. Thanks for sharing. I'm glad you got away from the negative influence in your life. And Congrats on your success!

    It's great that so many people are interested in the outcome of the study. I will gladly post a summary of my findings here for you guys. Im looking forward to it.

    Have a great day / night guys!

    Done! Good luck with your study. I believe stress and a poor relationships have been the main factors in my weight gain over the last few years. Looking forward to seeing the feedback from your study.
