im 5’2 130 and wanna be 110. i want to do it by the summmer which is in about 6 months. is this a reasonable goal or is it tooo much weight loss for the amount of time? also, any tips on how to keep a strong will power? thanks!

Ladies i notice women will sit and cross their legs and i seen several of them begin to rock the top leg back and fourth really really fast then they eventually stop and twitch their foot real fast from side to side and then go back to the rocking again. It seems like a routine they have they rock the free leg then the twitch of the foot happens after a certain amount of time. Why is this? I love learning about women!

i dont want anybody lecturing me about how bad they are and that i need to exercise and diet… please! i need to lose weight and i was doing really well on adipex but the website i used has been shut down, does anybody know any legit website i can get it from or of another weight loss pill that works?! please be specific in telling me what the pills looked like and how much weight you have lost in what amount of time. thank you!

This is kind of hard to explain. Say my body requires 2000 calories a day so I consume 2000 calories in one day but burn 2500 at the gym. I have therefore burnt 500 more than by body needs. How long does it take for your body to process this weight loss? Is it immediate or is there a process which takes a certain amount of time? I hope this makes sense!

I read in a book (called ADHD A handbook for Diagnosis and Treatment, 2nd Addition by R. Barkley) that the followings distinctions should be noted:

*the age of onset of ADHD is typically earlier than in BP & that it is quite rare for a child to be diagnosed with BP, which has a typical onset in late teens early adulthood. The onset of my problems was first 8 (when I heard voices although this could have been due to trauma of repeated surgery), then 13 (when I was coincidentally run over by a car and broke my leg). At 13 my behaviour became totally erratic and I lost the ability to focus at school, all my reports from high school say I have great potential if only I would concentrate.

* ADHD has a chronic and pervasive pattern of impairment over time and accross situations. BP tends to be cyclical and episodic with wide mood swings and grandiosity. I have never had grandiosity except for a slight obsession with creating a reformed religion with influences from Quakerism, Alevism, Islam and Zoroastrianism. But I have never seen myself in a grandiose manner. I also do not have mood swings, I have a chronic and persistent inability to focus on tasks even the simplest of tasks I find difficult, and I have chronic and consistent mild Depression with one major episode of Depression. I would say I am Dysthymic rather than full blown Depressed. The book also says that a person with BP is clearly not their normal self when in an episode and exhibits uncharacteristic symptoms, such as engaging in reckless activities, dangerous driving, spending sprees etc… This does not describe my symtoms at all, although I do have an almost omnipresent need to spend money.

* The person with BP has bursts of productivity and accomplishes a great deal in a short amount of time with little sleep. Again, I do not exhibit such symptoms, and am quite unable, infact, to be productive at all.

* The person with BP also has periods of believing they have special powers and exhibits great energy. I do not have such episodes. I actually have very little energy because I am on 1000mg Depakote and 2mg Risperidone (an anti-psychotic, even though I do not have psychotic features!). Prior to medication I was almost consitently hyperactive and would be wide awake every day until day light, then would crash with fatigue and wake up early afternoon. This made me virtually unable to hold a job down and I infact once had 23 days off sick due to fatigue in the space of a 300 day working year. I still experience days like that, though this is normally following a particularly stimulating evening doing something exciting (being excited is something I rarely experience since being on mood stabilisers and anti-psychotics).

* There is an absence of psychotic features and abnormally expansive or elevated mood in ADHD, whereas those features are evident in BP. I did experience hearing voices and once hallucinated around the age of 8, but my psychologist has suggested that this was due to trauma as I had several general anaesthetics and hospitalisations due to Hypospadias, a physical disorder. Apart from that I have never had anything close to psyhosis. Certainly nothing that medical professionals have observed.

* BP I requires meeting criteria for both a major depressive and a manic episode, which is not the case for ADHD. I have had one major depressive episode which lasted for 2 months, this year, despite being on full dose of Effexor (Venlafaxine). During this time I had persistent suidicide ideation although I never attempted it. I have never had a manic episode and my psychiatrist and psychologist have never reported seeing me elated or hypomanic. I am always subjectively euthymic or in low mood and drowsy.

* Family history of ADHD or BP. My father had similar symptoms to me, but he was never treated in his lifetime for any mental illness. He was once sent home from University due to being inappropriately "high". He did however have grandiosity and believed that himself and I were chosen by God to do his work, and that we were prophets. This was encouraged by the members of his evangelical/pentecostal church. My father was a musical elder at this church.

* Responses to medication – Those with ADHD respond poorly to mood stabilisers and rather well to stimulants. Conversely, those with a mood disorder may have a history of positive responses to antidepressant medication or mood stabilisers and not respond well to a stimulant. I am on Venlafaxine, Depakote and Risperidone and I still consistently experience Dysthymia, lack of attention, poor concentration, agitated hyperactivity and rapid thoughts.

The book says that a thorough and careful assessment of the individual’s symtoms is imperative for correct diagnosis and treatment, I feel I need and deserve this, rather than being constantly checked for psychosis, mania or depression. My work history is consitently poor, I have an inability to focus on my work, and an inability to
