When I was a teen, I also suffered from this kind of terrifying instability. I was completely out of control and didn't know what was the matter with me. I ended up having a hormonal imbalance made worse by a thyroid problem. I was a mess. If she's threatening to harm herself, do seek help for her, even if it means getting on her bad side for a while. Never judge. Never threaten. Never criticize. Support and love. And don't let her isolate too much if that's a route she's going.

Oh man.... If I weren't already engaged, you'd be in trouble!!!!

I can't wait to walk around naked!!!!

Congratulations!!!! I'm new here but read your story and hoped that things would work out! Great great news.

My name is Amy. I am 29. 5'9" and currently 271.6lbs. I am going into month 4 of my 6 month pre-op diet and have been making appointments to get all of the required pre-op testing done. I was athletic in high school, but began emotional eating after various abusive relationships, including the one that ended with the suicide of my sons father. I also have hashimotos and had a total thyroidectomy in 2011...After which I gained 40lbs!!! I am excited and nervous for my surgery, which has yet to be approved/scheduled. I just want to get back to my life. Happy to be here. And I have many questions, so I'll be around

Yes!!! My husband is very cute, and while he totally loves me, I always feel like people look at us and think "she must have a really good personality!!" Oh and the sweating! My son gets a kick out of that.

I'm new here, but I can not wait to NOT have to ask my husband to paint my toenails. Or buckle my sandles. Or pass on the cute pair of heels and go for the flats instead. Or...... Struggle to clean properly after a bathroom trip.... Hey. Someone had to go there! Lol!
