Nope can't do alarms or gates or tie myself up. I have cats and young kids that make all of those ideas impossible! My youngest regularly gets out of bed to sleep with me. My cats come in and out all night and if I close the door they scream at the door all night. Can't tie myself but because that is scary to me! What if…

Thanks all for the chit chat. It makes me feel better knowing that I am not alone! The docs around here are pretty judgmental when you have issues that have a stigma to them. It is pretty weird what sleeping meds and your natural body does to you. I have a friend that nearly sliced his toe off in his sleep and sent all his…

I've been to the doctors LOTS of them. I've been doing this since I was 4 years old. I'm now 30! LOL I'm not seeking MEDICAL advice. I'm seeing comfort, support, understanding, exchanging stories etc... I'm not seeking to be judged. I thought since this was a weight loss help place that you all wouldn't be so judgement....…

Also if everyone is STARVING before dinner and crabby and wanting to eat NOW; 30 mins before set out a plate of celery, carrot sticks, green beans, sugar snap peas (my kids fav), radishes, green pepper sticks (also my kids fav) etc...

I didn't and still don't cook or bake worth nothing so when I was pregnant and breastfeeding both our boys, I insisted that he…

This is a great thread! Veggies are one of the hardest thing for our generation to eat because we were "forced" to eat it and we were rewarded with ultra sweet treats which skewed our tastebuds to not like the taste of veggies. Lose-lose. I love the taste of veggies but I hate cleaning and cooking them. My kids only like…

My now ex husband was like this in the beginning. I could NOT be friends with my Male friend who I knew for 11+ years. I gave in and stopped having male friends because I loved him and didn't want him to feel insecure Then he realized I was bi sexual and that I could possibly cheat on him with women too. So I was NOT…

"starvation mode" is where you are not eating the basic amounts your body and brain NEEDS to be happy. Some people its 1000 calories so people it is 1600 some like that huge swimmer guy in the olympics its 4000. It depends on what you are doing during the day. If you are an invalid (or a preschooler) then 800 calories are…
