hi,

my name is michelle and i am from chesterfield , i have 2 children age 6-2 , been married 7 yr and with my husband 11 yr,

i had a tough childhood with not much food around and when it was there i used to binge it quick something that i think has followed me in life, i'm not too bad but every now and again i do .

i weigh 13.2 and when i met my husband i was 7.13 the lowest i have ever been following a break up and me living alown and just not eating .

then i lost lots of weight and became very dissaplined living on cereal , tuna salad and a weight watchers meal every tea and gym every day.

over the yrs i have become very relaxed about trying foods eg chinese abnd indean,   things i had never tried before and realised i like them ,now i wish i never had.

i have just come out of hospital folowing vomit with acid and blood ,i have suffered from bad acid to the point of being sick for a long time and messed up bowels ,sometimes with blood but now hopefully i'm gonna get to the bottom of it with out patiant tests. at the min i am in bed with pain in my chest and between shoulders and soooooooooo tiered and week .

but i do need to loose weight because i feel so unhealthy its gotta help with the acid surley

Shelbykian, I have acid reflux. but some major causes are being over weight, caffeine, alcohol, sugary diet, high fat diet. I found that I rarely get acid reflux anymore due to a healthy life style(not diet) of fruits and veggies as well as whole grains and whole foods. Good luck to ya. -RJ
