This is my first question asked so bear with me, I am 23 years old and I feel like I am going on 60. I work 12 hour shifts from 7p-7a at a hospital between 50-60 hours a week. I have a son whom is just two months shy of three years old, and I currently weigh 16lbs less than I did at my delivery weight. No matter how well I eat and not to mention that working in a hospital I get plenty of walk time in, no matter how much I try I cannot lose weight. I need to lose about 50 pounds, my face is broken out, I am depressed, tired all the time and just never feel good. And it is not that I am lazy or anything I am constantly running, and love the outdoors and try to stay outside as much as I can but it doesnt seem to help my case, I have been considering lately trying this new acai berry diet I have been hearing so much about, because I feel like a detoxification is just what I need. I was wondering if anyone had any good facts about this diet and if it was even worth sharing, also I guess that I should add that I am a recovering eating disorder, if that is what you would call it. Before I had my son I lost 60lbs in three months due to not eating, and throught the years I have had my stints in bulemia and diet pills and although I know this is not the right route to take I feel as if I have no other choice, I have tried dieting and excercising and it did nothing for me I feel like since I had my son my metabolism will never be that of a normal metabolism, am I doomed to be overweight my whole life or does someone out there have a miracle solution.
