I AM AN EMOTIONAL NON-EATER....I am 54...I NEED FRIENDS, PLEASE....

Hi everyone. I am new to this group, but I feel that maybe there are other women like me, who are struggling gaing weight and are in my age range. I am 5'7" and 106 lbs. I just am never hungry, so I FORCE myself to eat. I am widowed, with 2 daughters. Please read my profile....and if you can be my friend...I will thank you with all my heart.xo

hi, i know what you mean. i went thru a time when a bad divorce of 28 years put me in a tailspin. i have been anarexic bulimic,and it came back after many years brought on by the stress of the divorce. i am now trying to lose about 30 pounds.going thru menopause,trying to not overeat, i really want to be  healthy. i know being under weight can be as hard because i have been there. i really believe it's not about the weight. but making it about it, is easier than dealing with the real problems we are going thru.

Hi...I have come a very long way since I began CC....I am eating. Please read my Profile and see if you would like to be my friend. Of course it isn't about the weight..I was critically ill, in hospital on a ventilator for 12 weeks, tracheotomy, belly tube and chest tube..down to 70 lbs...came home and shorthly my Husband got ill. I have 2 daughters, now 20  and 16...Eight weelks later my Husband died..I KNOW it is not about the weight....but I can't get sick like I was. I need to gain weight and be healthy..and I am just really starting out. But I am EATING...I'm in therapy, where they teach you to be in control of your emotions, rather than them controling me..Not group therapy...a TEACHING GROUP.....This Website has helped me so much. I have eaten more in the last 2 weeks than I have in the last 3 years....A work in progress...I understand the menopause thing as well..Read my profile and see if you's like to be my friend..

The Women who have been my friends have DRASTICALLY HELPED ME change my mindset and eating patterns...Some AWESOME WOMEN on this site!

We can all use all the support we can get!  Hope to hear fro you soon !!
