I believe this post sounds an awful lot like success to me. Victory over your emotions, having a plan of action, holding your weight despite challenges against you... I'm impressed. You are a success!

You are a fantastic success and role model.  Perfection doesn't exist, it's only our perception that is important.  I am sorry that you have faced so many struggles, but I think you are stronger and wiser for overcoming them.  Hugs my friend.

Thank you - I think more than anything, I have more confidence for the next challenge that will come my way. I know I can get through anything at this point. Hopelessness was the biggest factor that led to out of control eating and that's gone now.

Your post brought joy to my heart this afternoon! (Something I need very much these days.) I am so glad to know that you are in a place that has brought you some answers and healing. It is so important for you to be in that place - I get that on a very deep level. (I struggle with perfectionist crap myself.)

You have always been a success story to me. Even during your "dark period" my faith in you and your tenacity has never wavered. I so admire you for your willingness to publicize your process. You are a courageous and brave woman. You have taught me much. You will always be one of my VSG heros.

Im sure one day my internet ramblings will come back to bite me in the ass lol.

 

It's only because of the many people here that believed in me when I no longer believed in myself that i'm still here fighting. I owe everything to you guys.

Hey AC.....

The road you have been on.......has not been a straight or flat one.....a road with ups/downs curves and road blocks......

You continue to navigate your way through with much success.......

Thanks for being open about it...... I learn from you....
