Paging Andy!

Thanks bubby! At least I can make weird faces into the camera now...still pretty terrified of pictures though. That will change sometime... Your little friends are too cute. I sure as hell hope acne is an equal opportunity employer, otherwise I would be way more bitter about my really bad skin days... We can't ha**** all out on here and there aren't always answers...but anyway you are gonna be just fine!

hi andy. just looked at your profile. love that cookie jar idea. i hope one day i can call myself a success at this like you and donnamarie.

aww thanks. i wish i felt like more of a success more often. i just have to remember than i'm still over 100 lbs from where i was and that that is still worth something...

Hi Andy!   Sounds like you have the exercise thing tied down. If I show up in public in a suit, not parading in one around the parameters of any public place, just show up, YOU can. You are gorgeous. ROTFLMAO at the thought of implants blasting off.  If you & me can weave in and out and mostly around the food trays and luncheons this holiday season, we can maintain.  You will find your way thru. I think it sounds pretty good overall.  hugs to you. I would hate to have to contend with a back thang...omg, scary. Believe that it will heal, that is a lot of it. Our society harbors a belief that once it's hurt, it lasts forever, not so! Get Dr. Sarno's book - very inspirational and interesting.

Hey Andy! You have been missed here.  The good folks on this board have kept it exciting though.  For me, I started a part time job as well and I don't get here nearly as much as I'd like.  In addition i am starting my dream job at the end of the month, so there is even more change.  To ADD to it, BL/BA is on the 19th of December and I'm STILL not convinced on the whole implant issue.   Aarrrrgggghhhh

But I am very glad to see you here!!  Girl, I totally understand what you are going through.   I had to take a long hard look at how I was eating, not even so much WHAT I was eating.  With a new job, odd hours and added stress it became very easy for me to make trail mix and wheat pretzels my dinner.  When I looked into the fruit bowl and saw shriveled apples it hurt me deep down. LOL  So I realized that packing sliced turkey and cheese sticks was just as easy as eating trail mix.  So I'm back on track and feeling 100% better already.  I'm glad it came now because it will last through the holiday season.   You know what needs to be done, and you will settle back into doing it again.  When resources are so limited in a small town it makes it difficult to set things into place that you need.  I hope that something gives there. Wonderful to see you back even if it is in lurking mode Donna
