Confession might have worked...

Well the confession I wrote the other day must have really made me think of it more and try harder.  I am down 4 lbs today! Yipee I am started back on track and on the losing side again...Yeah me...I appreciated all the advice and support I got from that post.  I thank you also Cheryl for showing me just how important the vitamins are by posting that website.  Thank You again.  Someone had mentioned, and I don't remember who now, that sometimes we do this, but all I can think of is that by my six month anniversary, which is January I am supposed to have lost a certain amount like you all know.  I am just afraid I wont reach the goal at that point, but who knows maybe miracles will happen.  I have lost a total of 83 lbs now.  Anyway I think I am paranoid about it.  Like my pharmacist and regular dr said that also with being so sick like I was it slows it down too, so hopefully now that I am  better and recognizing my downfalls I will do better and LOSE.  Thanks for all your support, it really does help...Angela

Well said Angela,

It's a tough road we all choose to follow, but you look like you are totally on the right track, you have lost a lot of weight you should also be proud of yourself!!!!! Don't forget your the one who worked hard to loose that weight too:)

Angela!  I am so happy for you!  I agree that you being so sick early on probably didn't help your loss very much!  But, you know you can do this and I'm willing to bet that you're gonna catch up and pass us!  Keep on going!  You can do it! 

Angela, your welcome, and I'm am happy you feel better.  It's a bumpy road sometimes.  I too seem to be loosing a little this week (but only what I had gainned so far)  maybe this Atkins thing is shocking my body.  way to go on the vitamins...

That is good news!  Don't be paranoid about your 6 month weigh in. It will be what it will be. You've had a rough road being sick.
I would be thrilled with 83 pounds gone! Just think where you would be without surgery. The same, slightly less or heavier???? There's nothing shabby about an 83 pound loss.
Keep up the good work and good for you for recognizing it was time to change things around.

Angela...good for you for recognizing it was time for a change and
**Congratulations** on the weight loss !! 

Try not to be "paranoid" about January coming...I'm sure you're gonna be very proud of yourself when your 6-month mark comes around !! 

Take Care !!
