ME

Hi all!

It has been forever since I have been on here. 

I am having a really really hard time.  I have been avoiding people, who I know that care.  I have started to go back to Support groups.  They help for a few days and then go back to the way I was before group.  I am going to go and see someone on the June 15th to hopefully help me through some of my issues.  I feel bad for somethings, have regrets for some other things and just need to find myself again.  I am down 110lbs in a year.  Loosing as been so hard for the last 4 months.  I try to stay focused and I wander.  I some help and encourangement to continue on this journey.  So, many of you have been there for me in the beginning and I walked away from the board because of my own personal issues going on.  Marriage issues, friend issues, work issues and personal issues and not focusing on the most important thing....MYSELF!!!!  And the people who care.  Sorry for that but just has been hard.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Hey gorgeous Anita, glad to see you on here. I am so sorry to hear that you have been going through a lot of tough times. It's very easy to slip away from support... especially when all your mental energy is going toward problems and issues. It's also hard to reach out because of shame and not wanting to bother people. I hope you get the help you need and we're all here for you!

Hugs Anita~! First congrats on the weight loss that is awesome.
I'm so glad that you are going to see someone to help you. It can be so hard with everything life throws at you. Please know that I am here if you need anything or even to just chat. You know how to find me!! HUGS to you I sure hope that life goes in the direction you want it to moving foward!! Miss you!!

Hi Anita,
Congrats on the weight loss. Moving and living in such a lighter body feels great! I try to remind myself of how I felt a year ago, then when the other " crap " in my life bothers me, it somehow makes me feel a bit better about life in general. But it is hard. Marriage, friend, work issues can be overwhelming at times. Congrats for  getting back to support group and making an appointment to see someone. I have to make sure I do little things every day to keep myself going. A cup of coffee with a friend, a walk to the park or a phone call with someone that always makes me feel better. Otherwise I  kind of unravel. You are not alone!! I think so many of us are going through the same things.  I don't work on Thurs and Fridays..send me an email if you ever want to grab coffee and a walk.
Best wishes,
Natalie
