		<description>Yeh - hurt 25 years ago, and weight has bounced up and down, from 70 lbs over-weight to almost ideal and back up and down again. Chronic pain through out, has robbed me of some things, but I am working to have them all back again. Thank you for your blog and site, I just got here last week. 

Curious - Alternative therapies? Are the details here on you site or something you have figured out, over the years of listening to your body? Cheers - David</description>

		<description>Hey, hope this comment works I&#039;m still somewhat new to this whole blogging thing.
nice post! I found your blog while 
Googling other people&#039;s weight loss stories. I&#039;ve actually just started blogging about
my &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.joansweightloss.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;weight loss success story&lt;/a&gt; - I lost over 30 pounds in a month
with a diet I developed!


I would love it if you could stop by my &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.joansweightloss.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;weight loss blog&lt;/a&gt;and let me know what you think.
Warmest wishes,
-Joan</description>

		<description>Loolwa,

Boy do I wish I could say I didn&#039;t identify SO much with this post. But I do. 

I think I gained something like 80 pounds while out of my mind with pain from a shoulder injury in 1995 that required two surgeries and left me permanently partially disabled (even the state of Washington declared me so). 

I lost all that weight and more in 2000-01 when I developed chronic stomach ulcers caused by all the anti-inflammatories I took to keep my shoulder partially functional. 

I think that was the only time I lost weight while in major pain, but that was mostly because I threw up at least half a dozen times  day for over a year.

Then I hurt my back in a car accident in 2006 and had to quit the gym because the pain was so bad (and still is). I gained 20 pounds in the first year, then got sick with my Mystery Illness that they now think might be lupus in June 2007 and I&#039;ve gained another 30 since I&#039;m mostly housebound, exhausted and in pain. 

Ugh! 

I&#039;m still 15 whole pounds below my top weight ever when my stomach ulcers started in 2000, but jeez, I never expected to reach this mass again. 

I have managed to (temporarily?) stop the weight gaining and have &quot;maintained&quot; for a couple months now, but still. I&#039;m huge and fat, and that does nothing for my self esteem. :( 

Anyway, I&#039;m rambling. But I truly appreciate this post and feel like you could be writing about me in it.</description>
