What's on your menu (Tuesday), RNYers?

I truly appreciate your supportive kind words. I know I am work in progress and want to find a happy balance that if I chose to take a rest day that I don't feel a.)guilty about it b.)worry that I will gain all my weight back if I don't work out-even for just a day.

Good luck at your appointment today -- you are tackling the tough stuff and I admire you!!

I appreciate the support. I am hoping to find a person I mesh well with. I wish my insurance covered the person at my center but he has convinced me that he will help me find the right person to go through this with. He has warned me that it will be a long difficult part of my journey.

Also cheering you on. Therapy can be really hard and shuffle things around internally, which can be painful. The end result can be really helpful though since it's truly hard to get honest and find new ways to deal with stress & difficulties. Don't be afraid to shop around or to fire someone if it isn't working.

All very true! I honestly am scared to uncover some of these "things" I have suppressed for so long-you know to be "strong" I kept pushing them down.....

I really hope the therapist can help you work things out Kelly.

Thank you, Chris!

Best of luck deciding upon your new counselor. I too am amazed at your exercise intensity!

Thank you!!

Oh, Jen! I almost forgot to comment...is it sad that I am envious that you dump? I wish I did - would be a great deterrent to eating sugar. I don't eat much sugar but I probably wouldn't eat any if I dumped. I have gotten the foamies plenty of times, but from what I have heard of dumping (ie fetal position on bathroom floor) I have never experienced that!
