I stumbled onto this site because I am a nurse in the school system where I live. I am what they call a "floater". So this school I am at today I have an autistic student who cannot calculate his carb counting or correction factor. I have told his mom to send in the total carbs for his lunch that she makes. She doesn't. So I have to figure it out. I have tried other sites, but they seem complicated, so I stumbled onto this site and it was perfect and the student didnt lose much time from class/lunch. Sooooo, I need to lose weight also, and started to explore this site. I need to lose 50lbs. I think that is the first time I admitted this to myself in a long time. I have battled with depression my whole life, was diagnosed @ 30 yrs old, and have been on the ups and downs of figuring out what med is best for me. First they kill your libido, and then they help pack on the lbs. But ultimately the food I put in my body is MY choice. I'm knocking on 50s door next year and I want to be healthier. I'm uncomfortable in my regular clothes, and I "EYE" don't like what I am seeing in the mirror. I try to watch what I eat, but I do love carbs. I don't eat after 8pm, and as far as exercise goes, my 10 month old black lab has been the only motivating factor to get off my butt and move. Some of us folks with depression/anxiety, and I got both, thank you mom and dad for that, need the meds, but with that said, black labrador retrievers are great for depression and anxiety. I hope someone can relate to me from my post. I can always use a friend. Thanks for this outlet. PEACE!
