Ummm...yeah...5/24/2010
Thank you Flaricew!
You can do it....best thing that you can do is write out your plan for the day and check off as you eat what you say you are going to eat as well as any deviations...check off your exercise, vitamins etc.. etc... As Glam stated...little by little...each success counts. This is what works for me when I am not hard headed..lol! You will be back on track. I am already claiming the victory for YOU! Be blessed.

Hey Lisa........Thanks so much for this post. I so admire your strength and ability to open up and put it all out there. That's the beauty of maturity and growth. It's also a testiment to the love and unconditional support from friends and strangers alike that you find here at BAF. I know that it's invaluable to me. I don't post often and have been so busy lately that I haven't had time to even keep up with others, but when I do get back to reading and listening on here it's always so comforting and informative.
I am so proud of your success at keeping to your commitment to get to your goal next month. Whether or not you make it, you've succeeded by not giving up and giving in. You're still on the grind towards your goal......and that is success! Some have to struggle more than others to reach set goals. You've had setbacks and weak moments, but you're still keeping at it. I applaude you!...
Hang on in there!................You will get to where you want and need to be!

Hey Janice!
Thanks so much for your support. I really feel like I know you ...and have never met you a day in my life. LOL! You have such a sweet spirit and I thank you for being you. One thing I have learned....God does not put us through things for no reason. I think most of our purpose...whether we know it or not...is to help others...share ourselves so that others will know that they are not alone...and can come up. Yes...there is a great deal of support on BAF. I know its the reason I keep coming back.
And while you are talking I see in the other post that you are down to 179 ! You go girl!!! Talk about proud....man I am so proud of you for your accomplishment!!!!...You are definitely working your tool...and not farting around! Keep up the great work!!!

Oh Lisa you are so sweet! I feel like we've been sisters in another lifetime! Thank you so much for the support and encouragement. Its what keeps me motivated and going. I've learned so much from you and others on this site. And you are so right, I do believe also that our experiences and what we go through and share benefits others as much as it does ourselves. It is very comforting to know also that I'm not in this struggle alone.
I'm amazed daily at my progress. I'm most proud of how I've become so disciplined and conscious of my diet and body. I thought I would really struggle with changing my eating habits, but the more I learn how this tool works with my body, the more I surrender to the proper nutrition guidelines. But I think what has worked most for me is to focus on other activities, interests and hobbies to fill voids of time in my life instead of allowing food to be my comforter. Food now is strictly for sustinance. I just stay busy doing something for others and me at all times that doesn't involve or revolve around food!
Keep working MD..........you'll reach that goal and then some!
