DEAR GIRL, YOU DON'T THINK YOUR CONDITION IS THAT BAD? ANY THOUGHT OF SUICIDE IS PRETTY BAD. CONSIDER A THERAPIST,THEY DON'T GIVE MEDS RIGHT AWAY,THEY TRY TALKING THINGS OUT.

ELLI, SUSAN ALSO SUGGESTED SOMETHING FROM MIKE HUCKABEE'S BOOK THAT IS SIMILAR. 20 MINUTE WAIT. IT'S INTERESTING THAT SO MANY PEOPLE FEEL A CRAVING OR HUNGER AND IMMEDIATELY EAT. I DID FOR YEARS.

I STILL AM NOT SO SURE AS TO WHY COFFEE IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU AS LONG AS YOU DON'T DRINK TOO MUCH OF IT. I USUALLY HAVE 2 CUPS A DAY AND ONCE IN AWHILE 3. NOT READY TO GIVE THAT UP. MAYBE…

I AGREE ABOUT EATING A LIGHT SNACK BEFORE BEDTIME. I READ THAT WE SHOULD HAVE OUR HEAVIEST MEAL AT LUNCH AND NOT EAT AFTER 7PM. TRIED THAT AND IT DID NOT WORK FOR ME. I THEN ATE MY USUAL HEAVY MEAL (WHICH BEING A DIET FRIENDLY MEAL IS NOT ALL THAT HEAVY)AT 7PM AND A SNACK WITH TEA OR DIET SWISS MISS AT 9 TO 10PM. I LOST…

HI SANDIF1, MY ADVICE TO YOU IS STOP STARTING OVER AND CONTINUE ON FROM WHATEVER POINT YOU DECIDED TO STOP. CONFUSING YOU? OK, I MEAN THAT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SLIPS WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO EAT RIGHT AND EXERCISE. THE TRICK IS TO STOP IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SLIP AND NOT LET IT GO INTO AN ALL OUT CHAIN EATING EVENT. WE ALL…

JEN, PLEASE DO THIS FOR YOURSELF ONLY. FORGET REVENGE ON THE EX AND EVEN THE KIDS BEING PROUD OF YOU. THOSE ARE BONUSES THAT COME WITH THE HEALTHY LIFESTYLE YOU WILL FOLLOW. SUCCESS DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH YOU WANT TO LOSE THE WEIGHT AND HOW MUCH HARD WORK YOU ARE WILLING TO DO. EDUCATE YOURSELF AS FAR AS A HEALTHY EATING PLAN…
