  • I was always slim then put on 35lbs when pregnant. lost a bit of it then got PND gained some more then managed to lose all of it 3yrs ago.

Now I have come back to MFP because I realise I now need to look at my diet as i was eating to compensate for the exercise I used to do and when i first…
  • I can't believe it. I start a chocolate Fast yesterday and then find out that Chocolate will help me get slim. Ah well I may as well go and have a bar of chocolate rather than that apple! :happy: :wink:
  • As you can see you are not alone. All the other posts are right and true. But I bet it's hard to believe you can do any of these things when you're deep into a depressive episode.

  • Anorexia is a creeping condition. I don't have Anorexia but I have been very close on several occasions and every time it has been a passing comment from a friend that has snapped me out of it. I know i am slim, but i don't see a slim person in the mirror. i see the bits of myself i don't like. I have struggled with this…
  • Latex allergy is quite common. Any itching or redness, or irritation, swelling may be symptoms of a latex allergy. You can buy latex free condoms. Even so I would have an STI screen done 1st to rule out any infection and if that is clear it may well be a latex allergy! Good Luck

I have worked very hard to maintain my…
  • I'm in Again! Only managed 2lb loss in May but as I only have a small amount to lose I know it won't just fall off! The great thing is I am snacking less, I am exercising more and eating more mindfully so the weight loss is a side effect I suppose. Goood Luck everyone and thanks Terri for starting us off again! :happy:

  • The nicest things my husband has ever done for me have generally been free and not for any occasion. He used to leave songs that I loved ready to play on the cassette deck in my car. So when I got into it to go to work I would turn on the stereo and a favourite song would start. Once he bought me home a hanging basket full…
