[QUOTE="4sumrzn, post: 133792, member: 4133"] I'm not too sure I should give any advice on this:knockedout:. I was anorexic in high school & gained 60-70 pounds when pregnant with both of my kids! I'm an emotional eater from H#!!. But, along with that...I have had arthritis since I was 17, chronic hives have been with me for over a year & I have been a roller coaster on the weight for years now. But, I will say....if you set your mind to it....things start to fall into place. 3 years ago.... I went on an excercise, health nut holiday (I called it that). It worked great.....but, I had the time to do it = 30 pounds lost *gained quite a bit back in a year. Last year...I was training for the Avon Walk For Breast Cancer. I tried so hard. Time alone was an issue. Hives came into my life. No motivation to make sure I was eating healthy.....no weight lost really. But, I sure could walk the miles! A few months after that.....I got mad! I was running every chance I could, even if it was when the family was eating dinner. I was calorie counting like crazy = 20 pounds lost. Gained 15 back.

I haven't been able to prove that to myself yet & need to! I think the others have given great advice.....I should chew on it myself:raspberry-tounge::happy2:.
