Thought you could use a few hugs! Please don't be afraid to stick around and join us. Most of us are very supportive. I also am an emotional eater. At one point I was 296#. I have worked and now am at 270#. I know how hard a statement that can be. I've got a long way to go and all of the friends I've made here help me go from one day to the next. Right now I am on a huge plateau that I can't seem to get off of, but by reading here I get the encouragement to keep trying. Good luck to you! Hugs, Brenda

"Be part of the solution not the problem and be a responsible adult. Responsible for your health."

Maybe you should take your own advice and take responsibility for your emotional health and deal with these anger and fear issues. Mental health is just as important as physical, and you seem way too angry to be healthy. The kind person inside you would have a great time here getting to know the wonderful people here on this board. Shawna is correct in advising you to maybe head to the debate board, seeing as your posting style seems a little hostile and accusatory.

Yes, we are fat. We already KNOW that. We got that way all by ourselves. We will get away from that as we see fit and in a way that is feasible to us. No one here holds each others hands, we just support decisions as we have all been there, and offer ideas.

Unkind remarks will not break this ring of women from all over the continent who all have something in common. You are the odd person out here.

Hope you get better soon,

Amy

Hey Mr. Para,

Your wife isn't a sex therapist is she? I have friends by the last name Para and the board you cl makes me wonder.
