Hi, Kathryn,
I need to lose a lot of weight also.
I did see some diet patches in the drug store among the diet aids. I don't know if they work!

When I want to try and lose some weight - but still have a hard time with eating - i make my own popcorn! Just buy the actual kernels, put them in a pot (with a litttttle bit of oil) and theres a snack that will fill you up, but doesn't actually have a lot of calories or fat! (depending on how much butter you put on it).

We will be your support here ... I'm sure some live feedback and assurance will be MUCH better than the patch

Keep talking with those that you are seeking support from ... support from others can make all the difference in the world.

Hi Katheryn, I can feel your pain--nothing better than chocolate with almonds! I have struggled with an eating disorder since I was a teen. I have been on a diet for 22 months that is working for me. Hang in there--you can do it. We are here to support you.

I just rescheduled my doctor's appointment from next week to the week after Thanksgiving so I can get the scale going the other way again. I'm eating even crummy candy; doesn't help that there's leftover from Halloween.

Whatever you do, stay away from that new OTC Ally - I asked my doc about it (my grandpa was pushing me to go on it saying it is perfectly safe) and my doc said that it pretty much gives you severe diarrhea. Yeah, all the fat comes out, but you dehydrate too. She's treated some people who took it and didnt realize that that is what happens.

I too have an issue with sweets, especially chocolate. I get low fat, no-sugar added chocolate ice creams. They aren't real creamy but they taste good.

Yahoo me and talk instead of candy LOL
if you can excersize it helps alot"sp CK"
also have to retrain your brain. When stressed instead of grabbing candy try getting up and walking around room.
I am here for you if you need me

I'm with you on this, I also need to lose some weight. I've started to exercise more again (sometimes) but binging and chocolate are a problem

i have never really been one to eat alot of sweets. but since i started this new med, my sweet tooth is in overdrive. what i have found that is sweet, satisfying, and lower in fat, is breakfast cereal. just a very small bowl of sweetened (kiddy like) cereal usually does the trick for me. hope this helps.
