Alfie, your first post was so right on! I eat for a large chunk of those reasons. Another reason is medications...body by Pfizer!
Thanks to Neurontin and now Depakote eating is more of an issue. Ever since I was put on the Depakote 125 mgs twice a day I have gained weight again. So now I have to compete with not only the after effects of the Neurontin, but now the effects of Depakote!
Sigh.....I keep trying though. Today I was very good....to a degree. The only bad thing I did was eat chocolate covered pretzels at 10:00 at night.
Oh well can't be perfect in one night. Try again tomorrow.
Oh and we got the new baby tortoise.....we think it is a she and right now she is nameless. She hasn't really expressed herself yet to inspire a name. She's been adjusting to her new home and sleeping most of the day today. I will post pictures either later today or on Monday. She is a cutie! One of my other tortoises was having jelousy issues so I actually fell asleep earlier tonight with him sleeping on my shoulder. He is Mamma's boy! Todd put him back in the tank. I'm surprised he didn't take a picture.
