I suggest you find another job so you can have a normal schedule! And start going to Overeaters Anonymous meetings, because you need to get into recovery and get that weight off, while you can. And ;you're starving yourself eating that way! Please get a day job, and stop wearing yourself out! I'm very concerned for you!
Yours truly,

If you would like people to consider OA, I suggest you change your approach so that your message is better received and doesn't fall on deaf ears.
Original goal: lose 53 lbs. New goal: lose 68-78 lbs total.

I tested low on D and am trying to get that corrected. In fact, I'm due to get checked on that right about now. My doc recommended an extra 1000 units a day in addition to the 400 in my multi-vitamin. I won't have any idea whether that was enough until I get my blood tested.

I feel for ya hun....I worked 7pm to 3am in an ER, and boy, trying to sleep, figure out meals was tough...I too felt like a zombie, would anwser the phone, agree to what someone said, and hang up, go back to sleep...Ya, and no social life...I get ya...
I really don't have any words of wisdom. I hung in there until an opening came up for the 3pm-11pm shift.
The only thing I do now that has helped me lose is to PLAN .....Shop for the foods you need to take to work, stock up on frozed Lean Cusine type stuff so its available and you don't go grabbin fast foods...
Cutting out all the fats I can, and only doing chicken/lo fat stuff at Taco Bell, deli sandwhiches, no mayo...Things like that. YES you lose slower, like 5lbs a month, but it adds up...
Take care
Dear Bliss:
I'm sorry I wrote to you to quit your job and find another. How foolish of me it was to say that to you! Of course you keep your job at night! Good for you for being willing to work there, and to help people the way you do!
It's hard to eat with your schedule, I know. And hard to sleep, as well. Good luck to you, in all your endeavors.

I've been off work three days with a TBI. Head injury. Concussion whatever you want to call it. Don't worry I'll be fine. I just have a little bit of a headache and post-concussive syndrome. Which sounds worse than it is. Thanks for all your support!
