Usually when Im finished Ill weigh myself again, I tend to gain BEFORE my monthly and be about 3-5 lbs lighter after. Fun fact: menstruating burns 15% more cals the first few days, hence PMS cravings so if you are going to cheat a bit on your diet, right before you start or within the first 2 days is the best time to do so…

I add everything but chewing gum [sugar free, Ill burn more cals chewing it than its worth lol] and cigarettes.

Thank you so much--- the DR is next week and I feel like when I was getting my first vaccine shot [I'm that scared] all this input helps greatly! I want to lose weight AND keep my sex life, AND not get more depressed xoxoxo

Okay thank you, Ill definitely be asking my doctor a lot of questions when I go in and reading up on these meds carefully. Best wishes everyone xoxoxo :heart:

Withdrawals like that happened to me when I was on Paxil, and I was in a situation where I could not get my new script and it was a TERRIBLE week. And when I was on it, at first, I swear it was like taking speed. Now my husband wants me to go to the doctor and see about getting on anti depressants again and Im scared to…

Thanks Mary, I hope so. I got your add xoxoxo

Thank you for your honesty and Im happy to help any way I can. It is hard, and people dont understand, and I know the damage Ive done is irreversible... My teeth are transparent but since Im an Irish redhead, I have thick hair and thick skin. Ive been purging for 6 years... for me I think baby steps is the way to go. And…

Best wishes to all of you! I often eat when I feel lonely, and Im home alone a lot so it gets difficult to control but if we stay strong and seek support when we need it we can overcome it :)

I feel the same way about treatment too! Financial reasons, and they tend to keep you until you are at the max weight you can be healthy at, and Im afraid of opening up and not being taken seriously. I too am making efforts on my own to not purge. Its still good to have support from someone who understands. Congrats on…

I blog on here, Im new to all of this...

Thank you guys so so much! :flowerforyou: Ill let you know what I decide on after searching and trying. Right now Im limited to internet and at home [live in the boonies, no car etc] but Im glad to have an idea of what i need to search and look into xoxoxo

I am! May I friend you? Keeping track is helping me as well xoxoxo

Okay thank you everyone, Ill leave it to video searching :smile: I didnt know if any were better than others, take care!

I looked it up - I dont have cable or any way to watch television though. I also prefer instructional videos I can keep up with rather TV shows., but thanks so much for the info :heart:

No Im not recovered, but I want to quit binging/purging, still want to lose weight. The purging is addictive though :( I understand; I cant eat certain foods either. Lately anything in solid in my belly freaks me out until I puke it up. It really is a terrible struggle. I wish you the best; right now Im trying to stay…

Thank you :flowerforyou:

I feel you, I struggle with bulimia and my husband likes fattening foods so I have to cook/eat with him and its hard. I dont really have any advice sorry, Im figuring it out too, but Id like to add you as a friend...
