MDJunction to me

"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

Hi. I've been overweight my whole life. Not always by a lot but at 5 ft. 1, not a whole lot shows a whole lot. My mom is 5ft 7 and maybe 115 lbs. She's always told me that she wished she had my hips or my chest, and that I was her Renaissance woman, shapely and curvy. I always thought that was her nice way of saying I was fat. At my largest I was 215. I was depressed and suicidal. I'm down to 180 or so now. Working hard not to get skinny but to stay healthy. I will never be a size 8 or even a 10. But I'm trying very hard to learn to like my body just the way it is.

Hi! Welcome to the group! I am trying to learn to like/love my body the way it is too. It's not working out too good yet. I hope we can all help and learn from each other.
