I mean maybe...as in maybe...if I hit 500, I do...if I don't, I don't.
Of course, the more I reply to you, the more chance I have, so, maybe.

Fair enough!
But you wouldn't just answer me just to get your posts up...Would you?

Cheers folks. As to me lapse... okay, I'll be honest with ye - I went for 'tests' before Xmas - the upshot of which was me finding out that I am NOT able to have kids (I know that ye need a womb folks, but ye know what I mean... I'll try and be serious here for once). So - I didn't give a f*ck about things and depression being a natural reaction (also a breavement process) I decided to start stuffing me face again. And then Xmas... when you tell yourself "Well ye can't NOT eat loads... it's Xmas". And then after... I got back 'on track' proper... got my head sorted out and 'came to terms' with things... and that's when I sussed out a MAJOR prob. I have as a negative eating habit: Previously, I'd eat pretty healthily... but one day a week I'd have a 'blow out' - now I ain't talking a 'treat' - I'm talking a DAY of eating what I want... Done that in thepast and it's worked no probs... I'd averaged losing 3lbs+ using that technique of healthy for 6 days, pig out for one... but it don't work any more for me... Plus, it's not addressing the root cause of WHY I can be prone to putting it back on. After analysing it? Simple. Greed. Although I was trying to 'do things proper' I was still being greedy even though just for one day a week, and that develops into an increasing habit... you know, how a 'five a day' smoker turns in to a 'sixty a day'er? So now... easy. This is what I've done this week: Ate healthily ALL WEEK... no chocolate nor nowt - but today, we went to the café in the park and I had a hot chocolate with whipped cream and a Snickers... and THAT'S IT now for a week - no 'day off', just a small treat as opposed to a full 'blow out'. So now I've addressed the issue properly this time, I reckon I've sorted it - I've put on and lost 4 stones + in the past on numerous occasions (as anyone who has seen me can attest to), but it's only now that I've finally sussed out EXACTLY WHERE I've been going wrong - I'm pretty chuffed with this 'realisation' and reckon that it's going okay!

Christ, no matter what happened afterward, with regard to eating, that must have been a hard pill to swallow Neil. I'm really sorry to hear that. |

Cheers Paul... was a BIG shock to tell you the truth... so I ended up with "Neuresthenia" - kind of a term used to describe 'nervous breakdown'/anxiety/depression etc. Once I got it right 'in my head' then I reckon I got sorted out and I'm pretty much okay about it now, as is Mrs. Hunt/Columbo. Can't let it take over your life, and we've got a good one so it's okay. N. |

Same with us - I know they're different problems, but that's what happened to me when I got diabetes - anger, shock, denial, depression, then acceptance, and getting it right in my head, and now it doesn't bother me. Renee and I have taken our share of knocks lately but came through them still intact - we're solid, and back on the right road. |

Sounds like you've dealt with it quite well considering how serious a shock it was, and I'd hardly call this 'useless info' If you had gone into depression, it would be expected I suppose. You've gone through a very serious problem. |

Yup - I agree, which is why for once I'm not 'making light' of it. Plus having folk say "You can always adopt" etc. is NO HELP WHATSOEVER. The upshot is - we're carrying on with our lives... Me, Mrs wife, dogs and gerbils - no kids, but no worries now either - we'll enjoy life best we can, that's what it's all about! N. |
