The wrong direction

My weight is going in the wrong direction still, not least to do with the amount of junk food I am consuming.  I've been to see my doctor now and dicussed what could be affecting my ability to loose weight.  He seemed to be a little sceptical about Cushings Syndrome but from reading other people's accounts of their battle to get a diagnosis I was not unduly surprised.  Of course he put me in for a whole load of tests and referrals so we'll see what comes of that.

He also asked me to keep a food diary which makes embarrassing reading but I've forced myself to be completely honest about the extent of my problem, including making myself sick, planning massive secret food binges to reward myself and eating at night.

One really useful resource he did point me to though is a site called getselfhelp.co.uk which has a section with loads of free therapy worksheets you can do yourself and also lots of other resources.  The food diary i'm using is on there and is a lot more detailed than my original one.
