A CHRISTMAS THOUGHT

I wanted to take a minute to wish all of you Marchers a Merry Christmas. This can be a very stressful time of year and it doesn't help that many of us are dealing with the added stress of learning to deal with our new bodies and new eating habits etc. I just wanted to remind you all that you have achieved so much and have much to celebrate!! Don't let the worry over holiday eating and other issues diminish your joy over a new lease on life. Let's celebrate our success and not stress out over the small stuff. If we think it over logically folks the good far out-weighs the bad. If you don't believe me, take a look at your "before" photos and remember the bad old days!! BIG HUGS COMIN AT YA, MARCHERS!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Mike

Hey Mike, I am not sure why, but, we seem to always be on the same page of thinking. I was just looking through my old before pic's today in fact. WOW, now that really wasn't me was it. Oh yeah, it was. It is a sure fire reason to don't sweat the small stuff & get on with the NEW life we now have going for us. yup, it still has struggles, but not bad if you ask me. So up & onward to the better & healthier lifestyle. Hip Hip Hooray for 2006. I can say good-bye to 2005. Marilyn, the Bearlady
