Hi friends,

I'm back after a great month - August - with full abstinence but the last few months have been tough. First, my supplement supply (kuduz) ran out and thanks to you folks I finally got that back in order but due to lack of motivation or some chemical things I've fallen off my routine. First, my husband lost his job. That's a huge stress. Second, I was taking the topimax, but had the same one month interuption as with the kuduz, now back on it and am ramping back up on both in the last few days. Odd thing is, I have no appetite. I think I am depressed. I've lost seven lbs in six weeks and have been drinking the whole time. This actually makes me feel quite ill because I know that's not healthy at all. I'm only 5'2' and was not overweight to begin with.

I'm a bit of a puritan with nutrition so I don't feel good about this because what I've cut back on are not bad things but good things. I'm feeling quite depressed and am trying to sort out a plan to get myself back in business. I know I need to do this to help my husband and my sweet children in these difficult times. Any advice out there?

Raven, welcome back. My heart breaks for you. I too have lost more weight then I needed. I haven't drank in two months, I'm 5"8 and down to 130 from 147 and yes my weight loss was due to depression. When you wake in the morning drink your water and lemon, eat three good meals,even if they are small...cheese and cracker, walnuts, chicken and mashed potatos..lots of water. Stay on MWO and stay strong. if you need Kuduz I will send you half of mine to get you started. Just PM me.

Dang, I truly feel for you Raven.......sounds like some stressful times are surrounding you.

First off, great job for staying AF in August. That shows that you indeed have the ability to keep the AL monster at bay, and that if you put your mind to it, you can do it again.

Im not sure what path you are choosing(abstinence or moderation) but with the right mindset, a little willpower, and your supplements, you have proven you can reach your goals. :goodjob:


Wishing you success in your journey........It wont be easy, but it will be worth it, that much I know for sure!!

Bless you Nelz,

I think for now I need at least a day or two AF to clear my head. It's a good opportunity for me this weekend as my family is out of town and I can concentrate on other things. Of course I miss my kids like crazy! But its good for me to focus on what I need to do. Thanks so much for your kind response.
