Thank you one and all, I am now limited to my postings as my computer blew, thou some has mentioned to me that maybe a new motherboard may fix it, about 150 or so , used, well if that works then maybe in a week or 2, I will try that , because spending 500 or more on a new  or used one isn't possible for awhile.

I miss my computer, but it does not help me lose weight , as I am now way off the wagon, sorry but no lies here, I am running this wagon with those big old Clydesdales from Budeweiser, unfortunately.

I am not proud of this as I am ashamed a little but , I am also very very scared, really I am , but what am I to do, no Family Doctor, no Family here that cares enough to help me, people in Germany , yes but would you go there, not speaking the language and being broke, remember I am not a especially bright individual, I am 46 yrs old and over 450lbs, with no end in sight.

Chips and Pepsi, breakfasts to die for, (pun, for affect) and I see nothing stopping me , I for some reason are not able to quit eating, I am now being affected as I feel numbness in my lower legs and some kind of blistering on my lower legs above the sock line, muscle tighning, almost like charlie horses, this scares me , but I eat any way, why.

I know Dan Marino and Don Shula did NS,but who we fooling neither one would give the time day to me and see that I succeed, now they are great people , they really are, but they have many Dr.'s and personal trainers and lots of support, they are not alone driving a truck and have no one to kick them in the azz to stay on track, no they have plenty of people to kick them in the azz to get them back into shape, using the NS  food to do so, mostly, yes this works I do n ot doubt it , not for a minute, but I can not stick with it......

Time running out for this visit, I had one call from a guy in Florida, nice guy, he lost alot of weight too, I thank him for that call, but no one else called, except one text, from a friend I found here.  Then I was told about the scammer thing and I am sorry that was tough to deal with, scam , man the world is a tough place, even for 46 year old fat guys screaming out loud for help and being accused of a fraud, you see my picture, do you need a current with a headline in it?

I must go and am shamed that I let you down and fell off the wagon, I feel that I just gave up and I really do not want to die, but I can't stop eating and doing nothing, I figure diabetes is upon me now and it's a matter of time, but maybe God still has a miracle for me, I hope so.

Let me tell you something. There are all kind of people who give a s*It about you, but first you gotta care for yourself. I'm not telling you anything new...I'm sure you know this...I feel for you if you don't know how to quit eating. The only thing that I can tell you is get the Meal Planner and follow the plan. Write down what you are eating..when you are hungry then you should drink water. You body is probably starved for water and you just think you are hungry. You should be drinking 1/2 oz of water for each pound of body weight per day...Otherwise your body is in shock and you are just not flushing out your system. You are making it run without lubricant. Just think what would happen if you ran your Truck without oil. You treat your body worst than the truck. So if you are 450 lbs, then you should be drinking 125 ounces of water a day...16 oz of water per glass and that is 8glass of water a day that hold 16 OZ of water. You just gotta do that.

Then follow the book and get your metabolism changed. Get you body in gear so it makes you feel good. You don't have to be skinny, but you do have to give your body, fuel and lubricant. Then it will function and you will not be unhappy.

Forget the sports people. Remember that you are the most important person here. No one is as important as you.

Just remember that you as a customer keep Nutrisystem Profitable. Call their Cousnlors and talk with them.

They will help and these best to you as you get organized so you will feel good and loose weight.

Cheers,

Chester in the Desert...who use to weight 12 lbs less than 400 lbs.

I wish you well. I see you you have a post from Chester--who has nearly been where you are weightwise and has made progress. I, too, have over 150 lbs to lose and am working on it consistently. I wish I could give you the hope that you seem to be missing----in the end that is only what you give yourself. Are you perhaps, depressed? Can you get a medical card so you can see a doctor about your health? Your health has to be the first priority.

Oh Patrick...This post just saddens me so.You sound so hopeless but there is always hope.You do sound very depressed and worried. Please look into finding a free clinic so you can speak to a dr.heck worse case scenario go to an emergency room.They will evaluate you and end up writing off your bill as indigent.You dont have to have all your answers in one day.If I were you,I would wake up tomorrow and say,I am going to do the best for my body today.Chester really explained the importance of the water very well to you.That really really is so important and that alone will help you feel better! However, instead of saying oh I cant stop eating poorly,say I can make better choices for myself.I know your money is tight but you can buy an apple for less than a bag of chips.water is free.No one should be drinking soda of any kind.Its very bad for our bones and there is a link to it inhibiting weight loss.
My point Patrick is only you can help yourself.I can pray for you and I know many are praying for you.Just have the mini goals we talk about on here but your immediate small goal is doing better tomorrow.can you do that? can you wake up and say no to soda and yes to water.No to chips and yes to fruit.
You should walk to the grocery store everyday and buy your days worth of food.when its all eaten.you are done for the day.next day walk again to the grocery store and do it again and again and again. This could be very helpful to you.Look at things differently.You are not alone.
If you need anything ,let me know. Maryann

You are not letting US down....this is about caring for yourself, Patrick. Dan Marino, Marie Osmond....these are glamorous spokespeople for a weight-loss system that has been proven to work....their job is not to try to make sure you and I have success...that is OUR job. As adults, we are each responsible for our own choices and behavior.

If you are depressed and self-destructive right now, please do as loxygirl45 suggested and find the free resources that exist nearly everywhere and work to help yourself, rather than kill yourself.

That is my hope for you, and I'm sending positive energy your way, Patrick.

Just make one positive decision at a time that is good for you. Just start with your next meal, and go from there - Lisa
