Congratulations Terrisa !!! That feeling of achieving a goal is the best feeling ever. You'll make your personal goal no problem. Congratulations again - Marta

For those of us that are backsliding.. is there anything that anyone can recommened? Where there any special books that you felt helped you at all? How do you find a therapist that specializes in eating issues? I am okay for now- barely- but my old habits are back and I really can see myself gaining all the weight back- maybe not today or tomorrow- but somewhere down the road. Some weeks are harder than others and I guess that will just be the name of the game- but I'm scared. Thanks- Holly

Dang, Belle...you're already feeling up to trying on clothes?! Wow you recover quickly! By the time your swelling is gone you'll probably be in an 8!

Marilyn- I so know what you mean! lol!

Thank you, Marilyn... I didn't lay down because it was so uncomfortable that all I could do was sit upright and rock back and forth for an hour! But, I had nausea and vomiting that came out of nowhere...that really shocked me because I knew that it couldn't have been the piece of cheese that I ate, I was too careful eating it to have overeaten or not chewed well enough. Besides, I seem to have a pouch of steel now, so to feel nauseated and to actually vomit was way out of character for me...that in addition to the sudden pain was scary. I think that I will make an appointment soon...but I know myself...so I'll probably end up waiting for it to happen again like an idiot .
