MDJunction to me

cinderella"MDJunction to me is a life saver... when i first was diagnosed with Scheuermann's Disease i wrote a message to a page i found on google, hoping that they could help me.... you'd never know it but that weird feeling (you know that one where it feels like someone actually cares) came over me when i opened my email next day to find that someone on the other side of the world (at the American Medical Library)had read my message while i was sleeping, and there low and behold was the address to MDJunction.... well it is everything to me, i live it breathe it and love it!!!!! I have found many people who are struggling with similar issues banding together to help each other. It is the best place in the world, and i couldn't think of another place to go to meet so many lovely people....

thanks MDJunction

No NES last night.

I ate a cookie that I baked and gained half a pound. It s funny, now that i weigh myself I can guess with pretty good accuracy what will happen. It is amazing how predictable my body is with cals. Well, it is time for me to get serious and work towards my weekly goals.

Yest I had a killer headache. I hope I dont have the same luck today. Ouch!

How did you guys do?

Snacked a little too much after dinner. Didn't manage to write anything when I woke up nor was I able to wait the 5 minutes, but I did think about it, soits not that I forgot. Again, that's the biggest challenge and I think when I get the hang of it, it will make the most difference.

I ate the 1/2 protein bar and grapes and got up to have the other half protein bar. wish I just stayed in bed but Ive been anxious knowing that Im leaving for vacation- vegas wedding- and I have so much to do still....

Hopefully tonihgt will be better- but you wont hear from me until next week... good luck everyone!

Wonder how our newest member has been doing.

i wonered that myself. It would be alot of effort to keep that routine up long-term. I am sure I would have done it, though, if I were allowed.

Well, have a great trip. What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas-remember!

Wow I haven't posted on here in quite some time. I spent so much time on school work these last 2 weeks I have been pretty busy. I have had a couple mess ups in the past few weeks with lots of night eating and a few night NES free. at first I was going to extremes of padlocking the food and that worked for a good week or so of NES nights but then I would get so busy and forget to lock all the food up and it became a chore. but now I am focused and ready to try and end it all togethor. Last night I didn't have any NES and I am pumped! Right now I am 209 Pounds I was 218 when I joined the site. Good luck this month you guys glad to be back on here posting!

Great job with the weight loss, by the way! I am sure when you conquer the NES once and for all reaching your goal weight will be much easier.

I know it has been easier for me. I stopped working out all together and LOST 11 pounds. I still need to lose a 3 more but at my weight, it is hard to get there without really limiting calories. Def much easier w/out the NES

It will be better if you can figure this out without the padlocking. I dont think that is a change that can be made for life.

Last night, no NES. Trying to stick to my meal plan today.

My 6 year old has a show this morning. Yay!

Thats awesome that you lost 11 pounds without exercise. I personally think that exercising exessively hasnt something signifigant to do with night eating because my body my be more deprived and in need of carbs or other vitamins and nutrients. I can only imagine the mental toughness you have!

Well, by the way, I think I am more determined than tough! I just keep trying things and when something works try to stick with it.

My eating is still quite flawed and I am always reading self help books to ease my unhealthy relationship and reliance on food.

I did not weigh in today bc I really overate yesterday. I know I was medicating myself with food bc I felt sick and also sad. I am glad I realize this. I got it out of my system and now will move on to a better day.

If you just keep trying and dont give up, you will be able to conquer the NES. I really believe that!

OMG because I always fear like a total failure with NES and you guys have it all together. Yeah, sure. Chronic, this syndrome and it gets somewhat better but never leave. I am so happy you are all here and it does my heart good to know you are there. My treasured friends. If I at least communicated on a regular basic but I Only harm myself. The incessive workouts, skipping breakfast, eating late dinners. I'm sitting in the orthopedist office now with a new injury from overdoing the gym. Does any of this behavior sound familiar? Scary, will I ever get well? How do we live? We are a group that others cannot understand. Sitting in the darkness of my kitchen, up and down. Thanks for just being there to understand, I've missed speaking my heart out. Happy to know that you are here.
