I was loosing weight just fine, then I ran into a bunch of bills that I couldn't

Only when my immediate relatives die do I get so stressed that I don't eat, but that's short lived, thankfully. One extreme or the other isn't good. People loose the ability to digest and loose enzymes for food if not used. Too bad you didn't at least drink something like ensure until you felt better. It is rough when your body has trouble with foods, thanks to ulcers I had and keep trying to have, there are high acid foods that I either can't eat or must eat in very small quantities and not very often. That's rough enough, your problem, I'm sure is worse. Have you been to a Doctor? Sometimes they have ideas to help. Sometimes they make things worse to, it's a gamble. Take care

No I havent been to a doctor, I can still eat enough to get by on, its mainly bread, certain meats I cannot eat no more, some vegetables, certain crisps, actually when I think about it most of the foods I cant seem to eat no more are actually fattening anyway so it could be the fats in the food that I cant digest anymore.

My will power got up and went! I'll try again tomorrow, it's another day. Take care

Oh I would love a home gym myself. I had a neighbor that had a home gym in his basement and he had all kinds of different equipment..You are right though, the winter is the worse time, besides holidays, it is harder to worked off the pounds because of the cold...

It's easier when the weather is nice, I go for walks. But today was so cold that a person couldn't be out for more than a few seconds without being chilled to the bone and getting frost bite. Also why I'd like a home gym

No, I mean accomplish something, not just DO something! Like when I finish my taxes, or I've steam-cleaned the carpet throughout the whole house, or weeded the entire yard... those goals need to be elevated! When I got hurt the first time, we had nothing, and it got worse... weekly phone conversations with the people we owed money to worked wonders. One of them got us to a legit consolidation service that gave us the breathing room to get back on our feet... including helping with the $77,000 in medical bills. They helped us so much that I sent them Christmas cards for years, until they all moved on to other jobs!

I go through periods of time when I'm like that, too. My three teenage brothers would eat everything in the house if I didn't compete with them. Take care.

Ah! Maybe that's it - I also have three brothers that I had to compete with growing up. Plus only went grocery shoppiing once a month since the store was a good distance away.
