Jay, thanks for the advice. I offer you my support, too -- I know you're struggling with some of the same issues.

I REALLY love your ideas about exercising even if it's only a few minutes. Sometimes I feel all awful because I overate, then I feel "why should I bother to exercise..." and then I want to eat more. But it's so refreshing and mind-clearing when I work out. I like the idea of starting over and just doing a little bit. I know that usually inspires me to do more. Thanks! :)

> Jen....you are talking to a male eating disorder survivor here...and I can empathize with you. Here are a couple of 'tricks'..or just some friendly advise, as I too am struggling with losing weight.

I go to bed earlier these days, and even take a nap once in awhile, and it seems to reduce my night-time food cravings.
