I've also heard that some anorexics take laxatives to lose weight. Crazy, huh?

Okay, and I know this is sick, but I wouldn't mind having a 30 lb. BM. Congrats on the weight loss!

It certainly did for me, which is why it's only in the last couple of months that I finally decided to seriously work on this. Plus, I was determined to play hockey this season! When I first started tracking my weight over a year ago I think I was at 141 lbs., lost a few, then when I was in the hospital last June, gained 5 lbs.! Believe it or not, the food at this particular hospital was <em>so good!!!</em> (^) I never did anything about it sooner because of the depression, but being overweight, IMO, keeps people’s depression in place, you know?

You know what? Most schools have rec centers that are free for students (well, not exactly, because it's probably part of the "activity fee" in your tuition that you have to pay for even if you don't live on campus). A lot of gyms now have day cares, but I'd definitely check to see if your school has a rec center. <strong>Mr. Fabulous,</strong> well, I'd been having trouble back there recently. ;) I'll leave it at that. :) Thanks, <strong>Robin!</strong> Now that I've incorporated rest days into my gym schedule, things are working out better. (y) <strong>Abby,</strong> thank you! I hope you've all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ananke, yeah, that mortgage company post was definitely FOAD-esque. :d
