597160 tn?1254498907 , and weigh over 300lbs. I want to be more active and lose weight for health reasons. I want to be able to do more in this life then what I am capable of right now. But I get overwhelmed and eventually depressed when I think about what it's going to take in order for me to accomplish this. Therefore I do nothing. It's a vicious cycle. How can I fix this? Does anyone have any spare WILL POWER?
Avatar f tn As for soda, I typically only drink one soda a day (a coke in the mornings for my caffiene fix).
Avatar m tn Put in microwave at medium setting for 2 minutes, remove, stir and microwave for one more minute. If the microwave power is too high, it may boil over. Next time adjust quantities, time and power to get a better result. Oats are supposed to be good because they are absorbed slowly, but speak to your dietician. As it's the first meal of the day, I add about a quarter teaspoon of sugar(!), but it's the only sugar I add to anything all day.
Avatar f tn Hi Katarina Your husband is not alone! Many people find that once they have quit smoking they will gain approximately 5 kg weight. While some of this is due to the fact that nicotine suppresses hunger (thus the ex smoker feels initially hungrier more often), much of the weight gain is due to overeating. You are most likely accurate in your assessment: the ex smoker, your husband, is substituting his nicotine dependency to another addictive substance, which in this case is junk food.

The historian Henry Adams was being metaphorical, not medical, when he described power as “a sort of tumor that ends by killing the victim’s sympathies.” But that’s not far from where Dacher Keltner, a psychology professor at UC Berkeley, ended up after years of lab and field experiments.
518798 tn?1295212279 Is it just me, or have you guys noticed that when you give someone just a little authority, it totally goes to their head and they get on a major power trip? I encounter people all the time who are given just a little bit of control over something and they feel like God. This is something that really bothers me. I try to treat people with the respect they deserve, but sometimes they make it really difficult.
Avatar m tn The good news is that it only takes about three weeks for cravings to start to subside IF you stop eating junk food completely. Unless you sneak in a few treats here and there (like on a weekend or as a special treat)... which will serve to prolong the cravings indefinitely. If your addiction has advanced enough, that treat will be enough to make the cravings return even worse that before.
4318523 tn?1352726701 Hello, I'm a 18 year old girl, about 135lbs and 5'4". I'm not sure if I have a problem, because i'm still at a normal weight. I haven't been eating regularly for the past year and a half now, and it's starting to get worse now that i'm in college. I'm either not eating anything or throwing up what I do. I'm still at a normal weight, and i've only lost around 40lbs since starting these habits..
877379 tn?1259664623 It's not about being able to "control ourselves". We are not people without will power; we are people with an illness. OA is a twelve-step program and the first step is "I'm powerless over my disease." How many mornings have we woken up and sworn to ourselves, "I won't binge today" and then we do and are miserable by the end of the day. I can still remember how bad that felt, day after day.
Avatar f tn Great advice from Brice, but don't forget to occasionally indulge in some of your cravings too, otherwise you can risk setting yourself for that autopilot eating. For instance, if you've got a serious craving for chocolate, do not turn to a rice cakes as an alternative. Has that honestly ever worked for anyone??? For me personally, I'd eat the whole bag of rice cakes and still feel completely unsatisfied. The key (for me at least) is to let myself have a few pieces of dark chocolate.
Avatar n tn Have you been tested for mercury toxicity? Mercury reacts with sulfurous foods and produces tons of gas in the intestine that in turn smells like sulfur. I recommend getting a hair minerals analysis done to measure mercury levels, and if you find out you are high in mercury then begin some sort of chelation protocol with a practitioner (the safest protocol out there now would be the one by Dr.
Avatar m tn t seen any improvement in my weight for 5 years. Is my underweight is due to chewing fingernails. I used to skip breakfast for nearly 8 years.

Avatar f tn You maybe suprised at the huge prise difference, new condition but second hand electric wheelchairs go for $1000-2000 but you can still find them for well under $1000. The other day i saw a pride one go for $250 and to me it looked hardly used, and a couple of months ago one went for only $99 but it needed a new battery. Have a look at ebay before you spend that kind of money, sometimes you really are getting a good buy. Cheers.......
Avatar f tn Does power walking for long periods of time throughout a long distance benefit me? I try to include going uphill and downhill to vary it and sometimes take different routes. I do this everyday for at least two hours, but I'm not sure if I need to include some sort of cardio too.
Avatar n tn We need to know the exact definition of the power of a lens in general, and the power of an IOL in particular. We searched for the answer on the Internet, but we didn't get a clear-cut answer for this question. Could you please tell us the exact definition of the power of an IOL in terms of IOL's focal length? Thank you very much.
Avatar f tn Personally, I first saw my higher power as simply a power greater that me that can help me. For example: a little over 6 months ago I finally wanted off my daily drug disaster. I felt powerless and my life had become unmanageable. I also had become spiritually bankrupt you might say. (long story which I'll spare you from lol) So, I came here to this forum and typed out my story. Bingo!
Avatar f tn I am a bad girl because I found the tight bandage and tape so uncomfortable that I took it off and redid the gauze and tape. A handy tip for showering (a power port cannot get wet for 3 weeks, no swimming for a month): press and seal. Cut a piece to fit, press it into you skin, and tape all sides and you can shower. It really works! I still have that feeling of something foreign in my body and it bothers me. I also find I can't sleep well because it bothers me to sleep on either side.
Avatar f tn s and boom the chair breaks and I land on the floor with the spindle slammed into my back where I had been in a serious car accident and had chronic back pain for a yr and had almost been parallelized so i am laying there and i am thinking I will never walk again and I got up and my back was healed!!!!!!!!!!Now how is that for a miracle .
