New Dawn

So its been a while actually years since I last posted on this blog. Thats because I fell off the bandwagon. I just kept gaining and losing. However, Imoteda lost significant weight. And there is a good reason for this. Remember the medical mystery I wrote about in 2009 and 2010. Well yes it is real. It is very real. For so long I have been very worried about my weird symptoms. Despite all my attempts to lose weight I actually gain weight. Now I know that its not my fault really. I have been ill and never knew. Its and eating disorder and a sleeping disorder and finally I have reason behind the fact that I have been unable to lose weight despite my best efforts. I have been struggling, dieting during the day, exercising like crazy. In fact, I have had a full 24 fitness membership since 2009. Yet not results. But its a new day cause now I am armed with knowledge. So here is my facebook post on this issue.

Coming Clean.
Over the years, those of you that are friends of mine on Facebook would know that I am a health conscious person. I previously used to blog my workouts and health steps. But all my efforts and hard work and determination (of which I have PLENTTTYYYY) have not decreased my weight.
Last week I had a heart to heart discussion with my internist about my issues and he finally diagnosed with Binge Eating Disorder. Finally it all made sense. Every night,2-3 times a night for the past five years , I automatically get up from bed and head to the kitchen where I consume outrageous amounts of food. This action negates any hard work that I have done during the day.
My uncontrolled behavior is the cause of stress and anxiety. I have done all I could to stop it. I have tried meditation, yoga, prayer, fasting and name it all. I have tried it to no avail.
Currently I am working on this new issue that I have and like my sister said‪#‎itwillendinpraise‬. I am fighting and I appreciate your love and support. I am also opening the door for anyone who has this issue to come out and let us talk. Lets form a mini support group. Lets help each other. One will chase 1000 and two will chase 10 000. Together we can be sure of one thing #itwillendinpraise.
