I freaking did it

My doc wants me at 120. I like 105. The nut don't care. And my therapist she just flat out don't care. When I was down in the 80's she had the nerve to say well you are not the skinnest woman I have ever seen. She was no help at all. I just should have listened to my kids. I really think it is my time in life to get better and live a better life. I know it could be worse. But some time I forget that. Have a good day.

my children are my life. I hate what I have put them through. I am all they have. They shouldn't have to worry about me. Time for my old ass to grow up. And take care of me..  thanks for everyone helping me. amy

Hi Amy, I'm happy to see that you are doing better.  I was worried about you.  I'm still pretty new to this board, but I know that there are so many wonderful people here that are supportive and care about others.  You are a child of God and He is going to continue to help you get better.   Take care and post again soon so we know your'e doing ok. Alice

Thank you so much. I love the NC board. The people on here are so very nice and don't try to cut your head off...................Hope you are doing well. Let us know.  amy

Welcome back, Amy.

You sure are loved. Everybody's happy now that you're doing better. Congratulations for taking ownership of the situation and taking the right action. 

Are there any support groups in your area? I'm sure they could benefit from hearing your struggles and successes (just like we do here) and maybe it would give you a safe place to talk about your thoughts and feelings.

I'm thrilled to know you are still with us.

Take care of YOU!!!

Love, Karen

Thank you. I have been sick a long time. It is time the sun shines on my butt...lol.......The only support groups are 45 mins away. And they are for over eating. My is not eating. We have no places at all here that deal with not eating. or eating and puking. I have looked. I would like to go for like 2 months to a inpatation place. The closes one is in chapel hill. That is kinda far for me. I couldn't see my kids. I am all they have and they are all I have. They are 16 and 21 but are still my babies. I know I will still need lots of help but I have come a long way so far. I love the people  on the nc boards too. I keep up with every one of you. I do care lots. God bless all of you and hope you are all well. amy

Amy, Your excitement is contagious!  I'm practically jumping around inside, just because of how happy you sound in your message!  Congratulations on taking charge of your health!  Keep up the good work.  You have wonderful children that truly love you and that's motivation to do what you need to do!  Great job on the gain!

I am still in shock that I amy Jo can walk 2 miles. Not at one time. Just a mile at a time. But hey it counts. I am still just on cloud 9!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you are well. amy

Amy, First off ~ CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!   Secondly, please don't worry about getting flamed ~ until someone walks a mile in your shoes, they are in no position to judge you!!!  YOU have to live to please YOU and not everyone else.  So just keep doing what you are doing.  Take it one day at a time and you will succeed.  Way to go!! Hugs, Donna

Thanks I have had so many issues. Not only the gbs. But I felt a had ran away from all my problems. I am 43 years old. It was time to grow up and stop depending on my kids. The doctor told me I depend on my son (21 years old) to much. He is a big grown man. I am not married and can't pick up stuff and need help. My son said the doctor was wrong and he loves to help me that I am his mom not matter what they say. I have such good kids. God sure did bless me. I might not have a house or a car but I got more than a car and house. I got so much love from my kids. That means the world to me. Amy
