aliya January 24, 2019 Share January 24, 2019 (edited) I'm gonna say - not leaving the house sounds good to me. I pretty much don't leave the house as it is, except for work. I order almost every thing, including groceries. I have the internet. I don't need much else. Edited January 24, 2019 by aliya 14 Link to comment

Social isolation and zer exercise. It’s a recipe for isolation and weight gain. I’ve run a web business from home for the last 20 years. Went through a long period of weight gain and depression before I figured out a support structure to keep me accountable. 10 Link to comment

dreadfulLeigh January 24, 2019 Share January 24, 2019 There’s some fucked up cycle with them. He craves his mom’s love and attention, she makes him food as her love, he stays heavy in a misguided attempt to make his mom stay in his life. If he stays heavy, she’ll come over and feed him. It doesn’t seem like there’s much else she knows how to give him. 20 Link to comment

Hellga January 24, 2019 Share January 24, 2019 (edited) Hi All! A little late to the party, as I was cooking my own dinner (pork variation on chicken paprikash and baked potato crisps). I was listening to his story, though, as I was cooking - he sounds like a decent guy who had some problems in his childhood, but at least, he had a job and bought a house - I hope he does well. Just makes me wonder why he did not work on his food addiction issues when he was still getting out and when he went to get diagnosed with agoraphobia...
