Guest guest Posted February 22, 2000 Report Share Posted February 22, 2000 Hi Welcome to the list. Yes, you sure can develop " tolerance " to any treatement you use for rosacea (as you can for other disorders). Use one treatement as long as you can, then rotate to something else when you begin to notice a decline in effectiveness. Or, maybe not use one treatment so often. There's a lot of good recommendations on this list. Just keep up and follow the posts. Most of us have had good success with Zinc Oxide cream which is frequently used as diaper rash ointment. You can also go to the homepage and read the past archives. Good luck. Chris Newbie here! > Hello everyone! > > I just signed up on this list! I'm , a mom of 2 girls.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hi: My name is Deb and I'm sooooooo glad I found this group!!!! When I read the information on the group, I was immediately drawn to it. I have suffered with eating disorder since I was 13 and am now 45 years old. I've been through it all and am currently seeing a dietician who specializes in eating disorders. Together we are studying the book from Craighead - Appetite Awareness Training - which is all about tuning into your body and trusting that it will steer you right. I need your support because I feel like I am alone in this venture. My sister is a registered dietician but she has an eating disorder herself and is very restrictive and hyper-focused on the foods she eats and her body image. I am trying to get away from this although I admit, I have these tendencies as well. Thanks for letting me share a bit. I looking forward to making some friends!

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Welcome Deb and I bet you soon find that you feel more at 'home' here than you have in any other eating/foods discussion group. There's a Book List in the Files Section on this site which you and your dietician may find value for reference. Next to IE, I like Overcoming Overeating too. Same basic concepts, little smaller book ;-) Looking forward to more posts from you. Best to you, Katcha IEing since Mach 2007 > > Hi: > > My name is Deb and I'm sooooooo glad I found this group!!!! > > When I read the information on the group, I was immediately drawn to it.
