Sexy I eat very close to Atkins as diabetics need to watch carbs...so I eat a lot of meat <g> and the carbs I do eat are whole grain not just colored bread but whole grain ..I buy a lot of organic foods....thus high fiber..I eat some cereals but again the not FUN kind mostly oatmeal not instant shedded wheat bran, bran, Kashi anything....and Atkins opened up the door to some snacks for me...see sugar and fat free do NOT mean low carb or calories so this keeps me fit and also on the diabetic program..Not many people can eat like me.....makes Atkins look fun :-) Like today..I had for breakfast KNOWING I would be lazy...a can of tuna and some olive oil with some fake mayo....lunch I went wild ate the meat off a Arbys sandwich and have 1 cheese stick....breaded kind..for dinner I had a evil bowl of minesonni soup at Olive Garden and salad with cheese..then 2 muffins with BENECOL not long ago ..that was a pig out for a lazy day..On a day I exercise I add more GOOD carbs...berries mostly wheat bread or cereal....and more meat..
I take Ambein at bed...and valim as needed but I now take them all at bed hahaha no comments :p and um 1 neurontin for sleep too...My rule of thumb is weight fluctuates but if you go over 3 pounds add an extra 1/2 hr of exercise till your back down

I'm with you jlynne...I bought those cadbury mini eggs and ate the whole bag in less than 2 days..then somebody brought them in to work and I ate just about the whole bag then also..I love those things....But made it to the gym...Hey I have problems making it through my arobics class without feeling very tired and weak...and lifting weights lately I have had to go down on the amount of weights I lift...Hope that subsides from the meds settling...Enjoy your chocolate..Mystic

Jlynne an honest answer is CASH...terrible but honest and when that goes and its going fast...I may then be done with it all I hope..plus I have pets and nowhere to go to..No job the anxiety issues and all....pets ..if no pets I have people I could stay with but they are like my family ,...so like a dunce I stay

When I left my first husband, I made a plan; it took me 9 mo's to carry it out, but I did it. I'm not saying that *MY* plan would work for you, but *A* plan might not be a bad idea. Plus, it would give you some goals, and something to look forward to, rather than something to dread every day.
Just a thought.

Well, it sounds like you are working on a pretty important goal already - getting your anxiety under control, right?
How about this:
Goal #1: get anxiety under control
Goal #2: make a plan
There. Now you have a plan!
(((Here's to you!)))

. . . guess you've probably already heard any advice I might be able to give, huh?
So, what is going to happen . . . are you for sure going to lose your house?
I was forced to sell a house once - years ago when my kids were small. It turned out to be a good thing for me - got me out of the town I was living in (bad influences).
Gosh, that was a lifetime ago. My kids have kids now!
((((life))))

Oh no we are right on time with the payments but we are often tight and can get behind on some bills....but no in no threat at all yet...Just seems we cannot go forever in debt like this. Things will work out one way or another...PLEASE DONT WORRY LOL...I Am cool I just wish I was free...I was happier when I lived alone
So what are you up to tonight just hanging in here like me...gosh its been like 8 hours I wish they paid me to hang in here..I could move..hahahaha its a full day today..I feel bad I was soooooo lazy today...AND YOU??

I prefer being single, too [now]. But this is the first time in my life I have ever lived alone; I always had the kids when I was single before. My husband left me last summer after 17yrs together - no warning, just a note on my chair when I came home from work. That is why the severe depression now, tho I have suffered from chronic depression most of my life.
We had a really nice day today; sunny and warm. I slept until noon, but still got a lot of work done in the yard and did some cleaning in my garage. [I refinanced the house and bought my husband's interest in it when we divorced]
I have a little pond in the back yard that I built myself, and I cleaned out the pump today so now the waterfall is running a lot faster. I also got my auto sprinkler system turned back on - that is a chore I hate, cuz I have to reach way down in a hole to turn the handle and it's really hard to turn. But I did it - 'cuz "I AM WOMAN!" . . . I'm going to make the hole bigger this summer.
I like working in the yard and around the house, remodeling and stuff. I am not ready to start dating again yet, so I just keep myself busy with things like that.
Sometimes it gets to me, though, like . . . who the @#?! cares if anything gets done?? It has been almost impossible for me to invite anyone to my home since my husband left - so I wonder who I am doing all this work for?? That's only on bad days, though, and the bad days don't come as close together as they used to.
Geez . . . you really got me started. It must be getting pretty late for you, huh? It's only 10:30 pm here. Don't forget Daylight Savings tonight:)
((((yawn))))

{{{{{{JLYNNE}}}}}}} Wow, I am glad you opened up for you and me cause I really didnt know your story at all I kinda ran into you on someone elses thread....and knew I liked you right off. I am so sorry on the husband ..what a horrible way to find out...Seems you have risen above it all..and you are very self-reliant ..I use to be I have lived alone a few times..one time I even had a home not just an apt...I AM a people p[erson but this man drags me down..if you ever read the psychology area you would see some reasons why...and I just dont care about him anymore. Your place sounds cool and you know, you do it for YOU..I hope anyhow....when I had my own place I had it all redone..for ME...and enjoyed it..I love to sleep late and wish I still had the peace of mind to do so without meds like I did before HIM..UGH
HUGS ..SOOM BED..I THINK :)

Well, Fallen, I don't know how old you are, but I hope you find what you are looking for before you are my age. It is really hard to start over again now . . .
How long have you been treating for anxiety? Are you seeing improvement? (questions, questions)
If you read this tonight, you don't have to answer tonight - I know you need to go to bed:~)
Sleep well:~)
