They say it takes the brain 20 mins to register you have eaten and are full , the other day I found myself reverting to type and just opening my mouth and shoveling stuff in it, loads of it, gulp after the other and it hit me this is not right stop, so I stopped and went and did something else for 20 mins to give myself a chance to realise I had enough or then would need more, turned out I had plenty and nothing else was needed , a great turning point and if anyone else finds themselves in that situation try it it does work.

That works and so does allowing yourself one or two pieces and thoroughly enjoying it not shoveling it down as if it was going out of fashion:rotfl::rotfl:

At the moment I am struggling like mad to find the hunger signs in my brain that tells me that it is time to eat, I have found them here and there and off I go, try to do it before it is real hunger, when it is still at the peckish, could do with something to eat stage because I have noticed that if I let it go too far then the hunger over rules me and turns me into a monster eating machine that makes bad choices.

Had I been peckish I would have chosen well like salad or soup, hunger brings me memories of Mac's or KFC or take aways:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Welcome lauraland to our lovely thread.

I can understand the depression/stress thing. Been there, done that.

Vix, I'm a very happy outgoing person, on the outside. But sometimes it's easy to smile, just hard not to cry.

But anyway, I'm away back to smiling at myself before I get all depressed again

Depression is completely different from say having a bad day or stressed at work or feeling fed up and huffy or humpy or moany or miserable for a bit, depression has to be dealt with properly all the other above with a bit of TLC, patience, understanding, time and learning how to deal with life and the silly things it throws at you can be cleared up, got over, dusted off and put back on the shelf in a jiffy, depression can't:D

oh tell me about it victory, I was diagnosed with PND after my 2nd, and had it for around 7 yrs. Until I woke up and realised it wasn't PND it was my life that needed to change. So took a GIANT leap and changed it. Not everyone is in the position to do that. Not everyone feels they have the strength to do it either. I was so bad I was having panic attacks every day. I was a mouse in my own home, scared to open my mouth just in case it ended up with me getting the silent treatment again. Finally, the dark cloud lifted and I could see the way out, and jumped in head first. Never looked back.

But the easy to smile hard not to cry, is exactly how i felt when i was at my lowest. So easy to paint a smile on for the outside world when you feel like you're dying inside. I still get a few down spells but nothing like what I was, I try to put those down to normal mood alterations.

The only thing now is, I wish I could cry cos sometimes it does work wonders


Anyhoo back on dieting matters. Mine has gone out the window this week. After painting the kitchen, I found the old breadmaker hiding in the back of a cupboard, after a good clean I have been trying some different recipes.


Will need to get back on track tho, got a night out in Edinburgh beginning of next month, and have a very sexy pair of jeggings that I need to squeeze my a$$ into by then. They look great on, just a wee bit too tight to be comfy :rotfl:

Hi mazza,

I know this is a dieting thread, but it would help me a lot if you could tell me if you managed to get out of this yourself, or with help. I'm desperately trying to shake off this dark cloud.

==================

Dieting: Had Branflakes. then went out today. Forced myself to eat a sausage roll, and a lolly ice.

I had PND with the first omg what thought I had, Fern Britton said she wanted to throw herself and her child out of a tall building, uhm and the rest:D

stebiz there is masses of help out there, go to your GP tell him/her, get refered to a counsellor/psychiatrist/expert in PND or NSAID, get the help, the listening, the medication you need, make a fuss if no one can hear you speak louder, make it clear to them you need help now.

I had panic attacks like you mazza I went once and laid my soul out to the doc and she turned round and said 'oh no we don't deal with them, you have to be refered etc and was just going to leave me, I thought the doc was supposed to get you the help fast, I walked out of the surgery still with no help and wished I had either hit her or complained until I got the help, they were so bad my legs would not move and I thought my heart would jump out of my chest and I would die, not even the brown paper bag had any effect on me.


Still there is help out there, google what you have in your area, attend meeting either one to one or as a group, go to the GP insist is urgent and you can no longer live with it.
