What Have You Done Today to Make You Feel Proud?

With my non-response scale thing, I am somewhere between beaten down & humble and determined to figure this thing out and not let it get the best of me.

My OA time and reading things like we discovered about fast oxidizers helps me to love myself more and know that this really is out f my hads to a degree. My job is to stay the course, not fall back and give up, but seek different ways to deal with all this!

I will say that lately I am proud that I am remembering that my body really is a machine and I am the mechanic.
 

Hey Neece, I've been thinking about you while I'm researching zinc deficiency.  It sounds to me like the reason for a lot of your problems.  I laughed when it said hair loss, because of what you said about having one hair!  For me, it was being hot all the time.  And apparently, weight loss or gain can go either way.  Why couldn't we have gotten the loss side, damnit???

Yea.. I feel better not freaking...

Makes me want to send Neecee a million roses for being so patient through my rants in the past year.. Amen, that woman has the patience of a saint.

It's taken a very long time, but for the first time.... I'm calm about it.  I've taken a little bit away from all of you in everything you say.... and it's helped me come to terms with this more than all that shrink time.. lemme tell ya!

I'm proud to know all of you... and grateful to have all of you.  This "calmness" is a big thing for me..


Ok.. so I'm getting all gushy here..  DEAL with it!  LOL

Well from what you've said about your shrink, he's never been through the frustration of gaining weight for no reason when you've been busting your ass to lose.  WE, on the other hand, understand perfectly what you are going through because we've all been there done that.  There's a special kinship that we have here because no one else in our lives understands the pure hell we go through on a daily basis.  My DH never had to resist a dessert in his life, so even though he tries to be understanding, his eyes start to glaze over after a while.  So that's why I need this place.  Cuz this is part of my life EVERYDAY.  So yeah, we get gushy...but it's because we've finally found a home where our relatives actually understand us!

P.S.  Roses for Neecee!
