  • I would, but I cannot forsake this angelic band around my left ring finger. Really is angelic too, two angel wings lol.
  • Not quite a heavy flow of people just yet... Well, I sent you a request anyways, so maybe more will follow :-)
  • 27. Feel free to add me if you like.
  • I do it daily, but that is because I have the will power to say "I never want to see that number beneath me on the scale again!" everybody is different. You have to have a strong will to keep going if the numbers are a bit higher. It's completely normal for fluctuation from day to day. Just keep in mind that it can be just…
  • Glad to see so many new faces!
  • I try to limit my strength training. I have a lot of weight to drop, and cardio has done me wonders in comparison. I still do a little bit of strength training at the gym a couple of times a week to condition my muscles, but I usually stick to swimming, stairmaster, treadmill etc. The great thing about strength training is…
  • Thanks everyone! I sent everyone a request!
  • I got about 80-90 lbs to go. I am actually thinking about documenting it on YouTube. I can be a heavy hitter at times "Burning anywhere from 2,500 to nearly 4,000 calories a day!" but since I have started college, I try not to do that so much. Anyways, I have a good system working for me. I was nearly 100 lbs over weight,…
  • Don't feel bad. I am a full time college student at the moment, but I also have a 3 year old son, and a 2 year old daughter. I am up most hours of the day and night, so I am usually available to talk.
  • - Oolong "Wu Long" Tea IF you aren't sensitive to caffeine like I used to be as a smoker. Home brewed with honey of course as a sweetener. NO ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS EVER! Honey is also a natural weight loss aid and carries medicinal properties. The tea will also help you to lose weight if you consume it about twice a day or…
  • Exercise can make a big difference. Cardio is great, but a little bit of strength here and there can do wonders. It is said that you do gain weight with muscle since it does weigh more than fat, but at the same time, the more muscle you have, the easier it is to lose the weight. You are very fortunate to have youth on your…
  • My little two cents... "It is not a temporary 'lose it and quit' kind of thing. It is a lifestyle change."
  • It can be... Sometimes it is possible to do too much, and you will notice a decline in progress for weight loss. That is why it is recommended to take a couple of days off. I used to be really heavy on cardio "3,000+ a day nearly everyday" and I noticed that over time if I didn't switch my routine up a bit, or take some…
  • Not sure if this was covered, but I drink anywhere between 4-10 tea bags worth of Oolong "Wu Long" Tea. Excellent diuretic and along with fiber, definitely keeps me normal. Along with Garcinia Cambogia extract and potassium, I have not had the slightest problem. I use honey in my tea also. Don't know if honey helps keep…
  • I DO NOT recommend Zoloft. I have been off conventional medicine for years now, and finally I seem to have a handle on my anxiety. My last therapy session, and last time taking medication was November of 2007 when I discharged from the U.S. Army. I have no problem with medicines that can help people, but Zoloft is a…
  • Just be careful without meds. I have been off them for about 5 years, and until recently, I had an anxiety relapse. I am alright now. I am a very resistful person when it comes to my mental problems, but even the strongest mind can be overwhelmed. Personally I would try smaller and smaller doses to test the waters,…
  • It's rough, and it is a legit phobia. No one knows what lies ahead of us after we pass away.
  • Worker's comp has to cover on sight injuries. Your boss is full of ****, and needs to *kitten* off and die. If she had hired a lawyer, he would have been chewed up and spit out!
  • A lot of it is a bluff usually because they don't want to pay out for worker's comp. Talking to a lawyer would be best though, so don't act on my advice. I know nothing of the sort, but there are laws and rules for a reason. He may just be fearful someone may do so, and actually get away with it. Bosses don't like the idea…
  • Sorry Gogojodee, That is bad that such a small thing like a hang up can do that to you, but I ENTIRELY understand. I am just as bad. I get an unknown number, and I am afraid to even answer. Ten years ago, and even less, I was the ballsiest person you may know. Now, everything effects my life. I hate it. I was so hard core,…
  • I've never had a problem with weight regulations due to medication. Afraid I haven't much help on this topic, but a damn good one! It mixes anxiety with weight gain, which are the two reasons why we are here.
  • My friend, seek help before you become like me... -Panic Disorder -Agoraphobia -Thanatophobia -Depression -Hypochondriac I may also be mildly OCD. If you are an indulger of caffeine, it wouldn't be unlikely that you developed such symptoms. Even just a cup or two a day will increase your chances for developing anxiety…
  • I know all about bad relationships. I have had nothing but before marrying my wife, and even we have our differences. Mostly because I am a loveable person, and she isn't quite as affectionate as I am I suppose. Maybe I don't strike the right chord with her romantically to place her in that affectionate mode, I don' t…
  • I used to love the rain, and seeing lightning... Anymore, I wake up, gasping for air each time it does. I hate what I have become...
  • I suspect I am mildly OCD myself. I always have things I HAVE TO DO that are irrelevant, like I drink Mio. I have six of them, and unless they are perfectly aligned in a row of 6, in 2 rows of 3, or 3 rows of 2, it drives me nuts. Sometimes, I used to do things like hold my breath from my bedroom to the downstairs "Never…
  • I've never had Xanax before... I was prescribed Zoloft and Lorazipam "Basically Ativan." which seemed to work, although I had that nice drunk feeling when I had to take the lorazipam. I had never known Xanax was a rebound anxiety drug, but I do now, so I know not to take it. I have had so many trips to the E.R. due to…
  • Wow, much diversity! Just what people need to read during a panic attack. I find educating yourself, even if you read the same thing every time, can help you pull through it. That is exactly why I wanted to make this post so that anyone having a panic attack can read the experiences of others, and realize that a lot "if…
  • Just want to say hello, and welcome to our new members, and howdy do to the ones whom were already here. Hope everyone is finding help here! As always, anyone is free to add me, or PM me if you have any comments, concerns, b*tches, complaints, ect. Or if you have a private topic you want posted confidentially. I will be…
  • I was in a 3 week funk, and that actually caused me to be anxious. I ate things without care, and didn't do much. Now that I am back on my feet, exercising and eating better "Not 100% great" I feel loads better. My anxiety at times seems over bearing, and at other times, it seems almost like a thing of the past. The sole…
  • Very tough things to deal with. PTSD only brings forth panic attacks. Snake, if it helps you any, I am only 5' 6'' and not a fan of too many tall people myself. Especially since most seem arrogant that their height makes them invincible to those shorter than them. Best thing to do about that is to knock them down a few…
