eating to live or living to eat

anything that could help me find another job and get a place of my own? If i have to live in a hotel for a week i will. But i do not have that much money. I do not have friends or relatives that i could stay with so that is also not on option.

You can chose to keep the trackers private, allow only your MedHelp friends to see, or keep it to yourself. You can decide how often to weigh in or track other events. I only weigh in 1 time a week because more than that stresses me out. If for any reason I don't think it is a good idea to weigh myself (like if I'm feeling sad), then I don't. I hope if you gradually and sensibly lose weight that you can better avoid body dysphoria.

Been there and done that, but it's no fun to eat anymore it was always my favourite pastime! My husband refuses to eat any of this "diet" food, wants to eat normally, and he can. But when I have to worry about 2 different meals, 3 to 6 times a day, I can't come up with much. The only thing we agree upon is oatmeal!!!! We both like it and it works well for our bowels. Thanks for all your help and info.

I usually eat around 630 or 7 and then go to bed around 830. I have to get up at 430am for work. I tried having a little snack before i go to sleep but i still wake up hungry. Thanks for all your feedback.

Thank you very much. You obviously have a lot of knowledge. I live in the UK and I don't know if T3 is available to all patients. ( I have read, usually on American sites that testing TSH only is not enough ) I also wouldn't know how to persuade a doctor to give it to me, as I was discharged from consultant care just 2 months ago. I still have blood tests at my doctor's every 6 months, so I shall try to get them to check FT3 and FT4 and see where they are on the scale.

if you know of other foods please let me know. I like that you put not only the amt to make 23 gms but also the calories it consist of.

If your not eating well try to make sure you at least take the vitamins, If you can get prenatal vitamins with DHA that is the best, if not you can also add DHA from fish oil or a DHA supplement. As for fruits and/or veggies can you have a few bucks to buy an apple or two (or other fruit or veggie) from the store every day so the family doesn't eat it on you? Try to relax and enjoy the pregnancy as much as you can!

thats what i try to d. i try to at least eat some crackers or a few small bites of food every so often. im tapering off xanax at the moment too so i dont know if that has something to do with the severe anxiety and stomach issues ive been dealing with. im just scared all the time. i feel like im going to lose my mind.

So I don't eat right at all. I know it's not a good thing but I live with my husbands Hispanic family and I am American and only like American food. Plus I am very uncomfortable helping myself to the kitchen. Anyway, I don't eat the recommended food guidelines. I'm told to eat fruits and veggies every day- and I don't (probably once a week to be honest) I'm told to eat a lot of meat and chicken and I don't - again with the once a week.

THE DOCTORS SAY IVE GAINED TO MUCH WEIGHT, AND I DONT HAVE THE BEST EATING HABITS. I NEVER BEEN ABLE TO STOMACH SALAD & IM AFRAID IM NOT GETTING THE PROPER VEGETABLE ESPECIALLY RAW VEGETABLE INTAKE. ANY ADVICE?

Im 37+1

Hmm I'm 23+1 and would like to know the same thing because it seems like I'm always buying bad foods .... Even though I've only gained 6lbs I know I need to eat better!

t remember the rest, you can google them), drink lots of water, filtered or reverse osmosis if you can. Those are some pretty general healthy eating guidelines.

Hello Everyone, OK, here's my issue. I'm almost 7 weeks pregnant, and will not see the doctor until March 7th. I have absolutely NO appetite, BUT of course I know I need to eat. I try eating during the day, well I force myself to eat rather, but I know I'm not eating enough, and I don't want to harm the baby. I will of course ask the doctor for more advice and even supplements if possible, but at the moment I'm feeling so guilty.

I have gastroparesis, and GERD, and am on methadone maintenance. I noticed I started having problems as soon as I started the Methadone Clinic, 3 yrs ago. I recently had an endoscopy and waiting on the biopsy results. I'm so sick of not being able to eat anything. I'm living off of oatmeal and can't over eat. But it's not over eating because I've been starving. I can only eat a small bowl of oatmeal before I take my methadone and then another small one for lunch.

Everytime i eat something my stomach hurts ...n im tired of eating crackers yogurt n drinking oj n water...wat else is out there to eat dat wont make me sick....

It's all about how people treat the meat. It's basic food safe and the chances are slim you're more likely to get it from unwashed produce that deli meats. However if you were to get the bacteria called listeria it's so devastating to unborn babies which is why you're advised not to eat it. It's like eating raw eggs there's a chance of getting saminella.

Sometimes when you start eating much less than your body is used to, it goes in to panic mode and holds on to all of the fat and calories from the food you eat. All the B vitamins help with energy metabolism. There may be others beneficial to you as well. Another possibility is you are not burning enough of the calories that you are eating. You may be burning just enough to STAY at the weight you are now.

This caused me to be unable to tell wether or not I needed to eat. But what I did is eat a small portion for each meal, and little snacks in between. If you honestly feel to sick for it then try drinking something that fills you up or don't eat the meal but eat a slightly bigger snack later. Gradually increase your portions until they're healthy for you. Also, look up what daily servings of fruits, grains, etc. you should be getting on myplate.

Do I get to see them grow up and live happy lives or do they get to see me die a slow and uncertain death?

I have been able to handle the Keeblers crackers with peanut butter in them. Also apple sauce and jello cups.
