Latest research into ADHD, Autism, Bi-polar, etc link
Finally - a reason why my son and I have received 3 of these labels and why they all run in my family on my father's side!! A big childish raspberry to all those who think such conditions aren't 'real' :tongue: :bigsmile:

what's your 'non-eat treat'?
A friend of mine told me that she hasn't been a so-called 'emotional eater' for over ten years because she simply doesn't allow herself to eat when she feels bad. Instead, she has a 'non-eat treat' - which for her is a soak in a bath with very expensive bath creme, a trip to the MAC make-up counter, a read of a good book…

Literary folks?? Anyone there??
Ok, I'll admit it. Much as I love the gym and try and squeeze some cardio/strength/pilates every day, a rather large part of me (maybe my chest, or that slowly shrinking muffin top - still large enough) loves to curl up with a bl00dy good book.

Hello well-endowed females
Hi, just wondering if any other girls really detest their big boobs? I'm a 34GG, which on someone 5ft 3 looks pretty stupid, in my opinion anyway, not necessarily my husband's! Even as a 20 year old (I'm now 37) and a size 8-10, I was a D cup. I'm hoping that as I lose the lbs they'll come off my chest, but mostly they…

Those first few pounds...
Hi everyone. I'd really like to hear from all you wunder-girls and boys who've already lost a fair bit of weight. I've gradually crept up to 12 stone in the last 18months and need to get at least 23lbs off. Trouble is whilst I have lost a 1lb in a week and a half (big deal!) it seems like a long haul to the end. My…
