Xanax and effexor. OK, thanks. I'll look into those. Thanks.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

Calli, effexor is an AD not an anxiety meds. I just mentioned it because it really does help with the stress eating.

OK. I expect if I get these panic attacks and whatnot under control through whatever mechanism, stress eating will be less of an issue. But thanks for the clarification.

The thing that helps with my stress eating is cutting out refined sugar.
It hurts like a bee-yotch to go off (headaches, serious jonesing) for about a week with three really bad days in the middle...
But once the job is done my eating pretty much stops being compulsive and boredom/stress related.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Something came up this weekend which means I am going to get yelled at by my boss later today. A lot. Not only that, but this is happening the week of my evaluation--so I am guessing this means NO raise. SO not looking forward to the ass-kicking I am in for.

Aw, crap, Scrappy. Here's hoping it's not as bad as you think it will be.

Ugh, Scrappy. May your boss be understanding.

Ugh, I'm sorry Scrappy. I hope your boss sees the issue differently.
I'm not really stress eating the refined sugars all that much. More the potato, bread, and cheese food groups. Mac and cheese, cheese pizza, various cheese-based spreads on crackers. Yummy, if not nutritionally complete. And great with wine. Oh, hey, that's fruit, isn't it?

oh, shit, Scrappy, I'm sorry. I hope it isn't as bad as you think it is (or your boss doesn't) or at least boss doesn't feel like it reflects poorly on your performance in general.
ION, is anyone using a Nuva ring? What's your experience been? I've been out of the birth control biz for so long I haven't kept up with what's available. My doctor wants me to try it out for 3 months and report back.

Now tagless for your comfort.
sj, I was 181 when I got pregnant with Owen and the doc wanted to keep my weight down because of the GD. With the diet he put me on I gained 9lbs. Dieting when pregnant is as much fun as dieting non-pregnant.
(((Erin))) I'm sure you made the right decision if it was that stressful.
O's bus was 15 minutes late so I said screw it and took him to school myself.
