I know I've been gone a long time...

Hey all
Want to/Trying to get back on track, sobrietywise, foodwise and supportwise.....that's a lot of wis e dom ---- lol.
Been gone a long time. How is everyone?
I am doing ok, getting an A in school but I feel like I know nothing, weight is still good, I've managed not to ever go above a certain weight, and then I go back to my 178....would like to be 165 by my birthday, on Christmas.
Overwhelmed a lot and caught up in negativity. Going to therapy and meetings. Good to see you all!
Cheryl,
It's good to see you back on the board!!! Sounds like you're going through a lot right now. Don't be a stranger here---you'll get a lot of support here!!!
I never felt like I knew anything in school either, but I actually was learning the stuff. I'm betting you know more than you think you do! Call me crazy, but I think it's kind of tough to get an A but not know anything!!!
As far as weight, it sounds like you're doing well if you're maintaining and not going above whatever number you've chosen. You've got the tool and know what to do with it. I think you've done great!!!
Like I said before, don't be a stranger here! This board is often my lifeline!!! I've learned a lot and continue to learn from everyone who's gone ahead of me and am thankful for all of you!!!

You will always be learning...and always amazed at how much you DO know when the time comes to put into action. One day, it will all make sense.
Stay close for support - glad to hear you are in therapy and meetings - definately all good things.

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 

Hi Cheryl.....
Great to hear about your grade. I know Clinicals can be a trying time. A close friend of mone is doing hers right now and I rarely hear from her, between school, kids and life in general. Hang in there, it sounds like you are doing great.
Sorry to hear you are overwhelmed. But glad you realize that negativity is surrounding you and that you are taking action to fight it. It's nice to hear from you............Hang in there......it will all be worth it.
