I'm all over the place these days with eating, folks. It wouldn't be *quite* as bad if it were just great, healthy food - but I'm RAVENOUS lately and eating everything in sight.

I'm not preggers.
I'm not PMS-ing.
I'm not unhappy.
I'm a *little* stressed out right now about my dad's health (just had lymph nodes in/near his lungs biopsied to test for cancer), my mom's health (diabetes, congestive heart failure. . .which is freaky because she's relatively young and APPEARS extremely healthy. . .skinny, good looking. LOL.) But not so stressed that I should be snapping like this all day long.

I feel like that old kids' board game - Hungry Hungry Hippos! CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP!

Does anyone think it would be a BAD idea to ***temporarily*** use a diet pill or appetite suppressant???? Has anyone out there used one temporarily? Was it hard to get off of when you were done? :grrr:

See Bronkaid thread- that's what I use it for. I find I can use it one day, not use it the next and I'm fine- no weird addictions or side effects from consistent or inconsistent use (except your body increases tolerance after a while of consistent use).

You might also try just plain caffeine.

I'm sorry about your parents' health and the stress it causes you :console:

Good luck.

Sorry to hear about your family. :(

What about going to maintenance for a few weeks to give yourself some caloric and psychological room?

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to happygirl again.

Keep up the positive attitude, cutie! :kiss:

What about cutting out starches for a few days? Works wonders as an appetite suppressant. Or postpone eating them until your last meal of the day?
