Wow, I stumbled on this thread. I am blown away by that Antartic response given by the moderator. Crap, I would be history too, if I got an answer like that. Try Sparkpeople maybe or like SDR just said something-fishy is really a ED forum, perhaps you will feel comfy there and not be shut down all the time.

Hi Kathleen : You have done a bang-up job with Dr Cass with this book ! I love it. Went online yesterday and purchased some of the supplements that I read may be of big help to me. I scored 13 on the sex hormone part which makes perfect sense to me, did badly on thyroid/adrenals, brain chemistry too. Symptoms overlap as you know. Insomina, dry skin, anxiety, nervousness, irregular periods, night sweats due to perimenopause, irritability... Looking forward to a healthier and much happier 2009. Nice hearing from you. Victoria. |

Hi Romiga : I have a 10 buck step counter, after having quite a few digital pedometers in the past and am happy with this one. It has no 'bells and whistles' it is a simple step counter with a digital readout, no calorie burn, no distance, nothing. Made by Sportline. I think if I am not mistaken I got it from Pedometers.com. I do remember that it was $ 10 and no tax or shipping either ! BTW : I did 9,588 steps on my second walk of the day ! go me !! |

Hi there ! It sure sounds to me as if you are feeling down and 'ugly'. I am over double your age and can say one thing to you, ' been there, done that' about 800 million times ! Sounds as if you could use a friend or buddy to talk to. PM me anytime. You have a good 2009, ok ?? Vickie xx |

Sweetie, you most definately have an eating disorder. I am 5 foot 1 and when I was your age, I was 111 pounds. I thought I was 'too fat' and went down to 105. That is skinny enough for that height. Now that I am approaching 48, the thought of me ever being anywhere near 95-111 pounds turns my blood to ice. Skinny is not a good look on anybody, you are a growing young lady, start to appreciate and celebrate your curves, you do not want to look like a 12 year old boy from the back, after all ! We can try to support you here, but please speak to either your folks or your school principle. Lots of love, Vickie |

Capsule casings and that means prescripton drugs, vitamin/mineral capsules and cold medicine. There are vegan capsule available though. Solgar does quite a few supplements gelatin free of the mainstream companies.

The whole thing frustrates me no end ! I always have cold feet, thinning hair, dry skin and am overweight, have been tested and tested many times over the years, it always comes out negative. Going to see if I can kick start it a bit with some natural supplements/food choices as I no longer have health insurance, so no more doctors for me right now. Victoria. |

Not too late at all, welcome and please join us !!! As an aside if any of you ladies are walkers and own a pedometer, can we add our weekly steps as well, when we post our weights every Saturday ? Just a thought ! I love my pedometer, I like watching the number go up and up and up !! I use it when I do long walks in the street, but when I use my treadmill, I watch the figures on the machine itself. ( it does not give steps as my treadmill is now 7 years old, but gives milage, time and approx calorie burn )

Hello RL : I have just gotten notification to be added to your contact list, after installing the necessary Yahoo toolbar and password, I see that it went thru, I then added you on to my own IM system, which is MSM. So hopefully all should go well and we can connect. For those interested in IM - basically you can google Yahoo Instant messenger or MSM IM. Then download it, you will have to create a new email address connected with it, whether you use it or not. I love it and can not be without it, as it replaces to a large degree expense phone calls for me, especially as I am in a long distance relationship with my fiance who lives in England. Your contact list will light up in green when one of your contacts is online, you simply right click to start 'chatting'. If you are online and one of your contacts signs on, you will get a small notification on your screen saying they have just logged in. So............it has been decided that Saturday is our group's weigh in day ? Great ! Count me in. Weighed this morning and was 184, down from 185 when I began on Christmas Day. C'mon guys, let' do this, and all encourage, inspire and help each other out !! Happy 2009 !! Victoria |

Hello ladies ; As I mentioned I do have instant messenging, so if any ( or all! ) of you wish to have a chat, then please by all means add me to your contact list, when I get the notification, I will accept and then you will automatically be added to my list . My name is Victoria. My IM is : misspossum@inbox.com Quick details : Will be 48 next month. Have suffered from binge eating disorder since I was 22, which was back in 1983. Have also been anorexic for a brief time, so I have weighed a low of 103 and a high of 211 and everything in between. I am currently 184, and I am 5 foot 1 inch and in menopause. If IM is not your thing or you do not have it, and you prefer to PM me, by all means, do. I am willing to listen and offer any support/guidance that I can. As I help somebody else I also help myself. Victoria. |

| Vegetarian | Seitan tastes like... | Dec 26 2008 14:54 (UTC) |

Sort of mushroomy and very chewy. I like it. Two downers though for me are : Very high in sodium and now that I have gone wheat free, it is now something I can not eat. I really notice a significant reduction in my cravings and binging when the wheat is out of my diet. Drat ! - I love wheat.

| Health & Support | ever had a change in period? (females) | Dec 26 2008 14:50 (UTC) |
|
I was irregular for 25 years, with cycles running anywhere from 30-80 days, so I was irregularly regular ! The cramps stopped when I was 24. Then all of a sudden at age 45 ( May 2006 ) I got cramps, then the night sweats started coming, then last but not least my period started coming exactly on time, every 28-30 days. Now, for the last 6 months, it has come on time 4 times, once it was 2 weeks late, and last month it was a week late. Of course, this only means I am nearing full menopause, even though the average American woman is is finishing up by 51, but it is not unheard of of women as young as 40 to begin massive changes in their cycles. This info probably won't help you younger gals, but perhaps useful to us gals who are now 40+ ( how did this happen ?? I remember being in College only yesterday !! LOL ) Hope everybody had a nice holiday yesterday.

| Weight Loss | Okay people, I found something to kill those hunger pains.... | Dec 25 2008 22:56 (UTC) |

It is made by Natural Factors a Canadian Company. It is not easily found in shops, so ordered mine on the internet. ( email me if you want to know which company I ordered it from, as I do not know if you are allowed to mention specific companies on this forum ) It is not cheap. A canister is around 28 bucks. Taste is ok, but you have to drink it quickly as it gels fast and gets thick. I have only started yesterday so I can not say one way or another if this is just another scam or if not effective on me. I can update this in a few weeks, I suppose to let you know my general opinion. But will say this for now, if you have constipation, well..........you won't after using this fiber product ! Yikes !!
