I am a rock bottom food addict. I have both starved myself and been morbidly obese. For me binge eating is only ever under control when I have clear boundaries and I accept the absolute need to respect those boundaries. Every time I think I have it under control and I relax my boundaries, sooner or later all hell breaks…

I am 324lb as of 19th sept. I have rapid cycling bipolar disorder, a long history of being abused leaving me emotionally unstable anyway. I also have Polycystic ovary syndrome which increases likelihood of weight gain, an under active thyroid which increases likelihood of weight gain, I come from a family of very big…

I am a rock bottom severe case. For me binge eating is only ever under control when I have clear boundaries and I accept the absolute need to respect those boundaries. Every time I think I have it under control and I relax my boundaries, sooner or later all hell breaks loose and I find myself wishing I was dead because I…

Sounds rough. Seems life is one headache after another merging into an unending battle. The alternative is death which will come of it's own accord to us all anyway. Have to get on with life and cling hard to the good bits. My bipolar hit a big low over summer. When my mood crashes the binge eating disorder flares up…

on track :)

On track :)

Thank you for Sharing Pictures. I am same height as you with a top weight of 330lb. When I was 28 I went from 300lb down to 180lb in 9 months. Only exercise I did was walking and swimming. I had some looseness in thighs, upper arms and lower abdomen but it was fairly minor. Mostly I did shrink back well. I think that was…

I ate as I intended to for past 3 days. The 3 months before that I was digging my grave with a spoon eating junk.

Gained 42 in under 3 months during Summer bipolar depression. Not giving up

I am back. Been a rough summer. Not unusual, I often get a bad bipolar crash over summer. Been very unwell with that but I survived. Eating did not go to plan. I went through a period of feeling very nauseous on increased meds and then got in to habit of starving myself. I went down to 282lb then had gastric issues related…

Well done :)

I did my weight watchers weigh in yesterday and was 284lb which I was very happy with. I am excited at the prospect of getting in to 270's soonish :)

I don't really bother logging anymore but food is going good.

Still here :), Hope you feel better soon Jenni

Well done Cari, I bottled out of my WW meeting last week because my previous weeks weigh in was 287lb and last week on weigh in day my scale said 303lb !!! my scales generally agree with weight watchers scales so I decided not to go to WW. I had that time of month before the weight increased by 16 lb and had 1 bad day of…

I am here, returned from my visit to family in Wales. Been a bit stressed out with various stuff and tired due to another bipolar medication dose increase. Hopefully that will be the last increase for a long while. Just have to get the right level of Lithium in my blood. Last test it was still a little too low, If next two…

Well done , that is a great achievement

Here. going away in morning. I will return in a week and do my best to stay on track while away :)

My most recent motivation is the death of someone I have known for 3 years. We attended the same community support center for people suffering mental health issues. She tragically took her own life last week which was devastating for our community group. It was a real wake up call that has made me take a hard look at how I…

My next mini goal is 279lb which is 10lb away and would take me under 20 UK stone.

My weight loss has fluctuated all over the place but 289lb as of this morning which is lowest I have been for well over a year.

Here but will be away all next week visiting family with no computer.

Here, I find listening to loud energetic music is mood enhancing when life drives me to limits .

Machu Picchu is achievable for me in a month on my own if I am reading right as around 50miles. As a group on longer walk with combined totals it is hard to choose because what is achievable very much depends on numbers participating and individual activity levels. Maybe if we pick a long walk target we could have it open…

I am here. Been increasingly tired and fed up last two weeks. Cried loads over weekend and then this morning my mood skyrocketed. I am high as a kite. I have not taken anything other than my prescribed meds which are epically failing to stabilizing my mood. If I could sell my own brain's chemical high though I would be…
