  • I'd love to have some friends, too. I've been tracking--daily--for about 7 weeks now.

  • [/quote] Um, I posted that on the first page, where many of the posts were about how people never went to McD's and/or had NOTHING they could order there. I realize that subsequent posts said otherwise, but I didn't think I needed to go back and edit my post. [/quote] Um, right on the first page most peeps were talking…

  • HUH? Where are you getting this? Most people have been saying that they HAVE found things they can eat; some include their experience that although it can fit in [the crap], they'd prefer to get their calories elsewhere.

  • Honestly, I never hope to *ever* be presented with ensure plus, boost plus, whatever again. I used to get a years supply at a time (something like 50 cases) dropped off at our doorstep all at once (yay Canada!). So, I really don't think I could stomach another one. Like, ever. That being said, they were extremely helpful…

  • Hey dextersp68 ~ yeah, I def don't want to get into a distorted relationship with food again ... been there, done that, thought I was over that! Sorry if that's how things are for you right now :neutral: liftlovelunge ~ I love the idea of fitness goals instead of weight goals! ~ that'd def. shift the focus (I think)! And…

  • Hi from Vancouver! I'm sorry that you lived with such dysfunction as a child (which makes things chaotic now) ... I would suggest making small goals, and not to beat yourself up if you can't complete them. If you are able to keep up with daily logging, then great! If not, maybe you can commit to one meal/day to start? In…

  • You guys are great. Thanks so much. Absolutely my husband deserves to know; I also hate being sneaky. (and lol about the President and secret keeping) It's weird, though, to think that I'd *never* be NOT ED (excuse the double negative) ... cuz I want to be. So much. I hate myself for having these idiotic thoughts. And…

  • Hi kevc, I'm married, too ~ but, I haven't told him anything. I've even hid the fact that I'm weighing myself which DOES have red flags waving all over the place. I think, for me, I've decided that 1200 is too low ... we'll see. I also don't know if it's doing me any good to be logging the calories .... my mind might get…

  • Thanks so much, Kalikel ... that's brilliant. It didn't even enter my mind to be in touch with a dietician (it'd have to be a new one because the one I used is associated with the hospital and I don't want to go there even as OP) and it would be a good idea to hook up with counselling services at my university (my shrink…
