  • I also have/had EDNOS. Formerly anorexic and bulimic (25 years ago!) and now just fat after a long term illness where I was on high doses of prednisone. It's been a lifelong struggle to get to a decent relationship with food. Like someone said above, I find that routines and planned meals help. Eating the same thing for…
  • Hi Cynthia, First CONGRATULATIONS on your transplant! I have a friend who's going to be having a kidney transplant shortly. That's not an easy process. I hear you on the prednisone. I call it "b*tch in a bottle." I have Lupus and Ankylosing Spondylitis with some lung complications, so I tend to go on and off the stuff. I…

Having a day off is a bit of a mental trick I play with myself. What's…

  • I wear my glasses all the time (can't wear contacts, not a candidate for Lasik, can't see 2 feet in front of me without them) I do a lot of cardio - mostly stationary bike and walking. I generally bring a towel and mop up as needed. It works fine for me, but I'm so used to wearing glasses all the time that I don't really…
