[QUOTE="hornplayer, post: 415259, member: 69210"] I seem to be losing my way a bit. Not sure how to get back on track. If anyone has any ideas/advice, I'd really appreciate hearing from you. Everything's been going well. Losing weight. Eating properly. Doing ok. I got impatient. My biggest problem, believe it or not, isn't my weight. - oh, I've never been small. There are a couple of bits of me that never shrink, no matter how little I weigh. As my ex, aka stalker, says, I'm not so much an hour glass, I'm a 24hr glass. And I'm ok with that. I'm fit and I'm strong. My biggest problem is my diet history and my truly screwed up relationship with food. I have been on a diet since I was eight years old. I'm now 42. I've done every diet known to man. I don't yo-yo, I go straight from one diet to another. My metabolism is shot. All the dieting has left me with food allergies that I never had before. All the chatter I hear tells me that I - diabetics in general, need to be skinny. In a panicky moment, I decided that the only way I was going to do that was to go on a soup/shake diet. I've done these before. I should have known better. My eating habits are all over the place. My energy levels are ****. I'm finding it almost impossible to stick to. i have no concentration and i'm making stupid mistakes. My hair is falling out. I'm having food related panic attacks again. I need to get back on track. My blood sugar isn't really bad. But I'm starting to gain weight instead of lose it and I need to refocus. As I said, any and all suggestions appreciated, but, just incase anyone out there is of the "suck it up and get on with it" persuasion? Please don't comment. Not helpful. Making me feel worse about myself would just exacerbate the problem. I'm sure you understand. [/QUOTE]
