I'm ready to turn over that new leaf....

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to ler everyone know that I made a promise to myself that I was going to get back on track "for real" after I resolved a very nerve racking (sp?) issue that's been killing me recently....well, everything turned out for the good today, and I am not gunna just forget what I promised myself!  Besides, I feel like crap because I am 10 pounds heavier than I was a few months ago, and when I lost those extra ten before, I felt so empowered!  I know I can do it...the 1st day or two is the hardest, but this is so important to me, and besides, I'm starting my core nursing classes 8/25, and I have GOT to be at my best to be able to DO my best.  Succeeding at nursing is EXTREMELY important to me, and I need to feel physically and mentally healthy, so I WILL do this, but I hope that you all will lend a little encouragement as you always do, because it's so much easier when I feel that I'm going through it with others in the same shoes.  Please pray for me.  I will keep you posted as I go.  By the way, I hope to get everything I need to try the pouch test next week.  I am curious to see how that works.

Hugs to all!

I hope everything works out for you and glad to see you are feeling strong about this!  You CAN do it!  It's so frustrating at times but it's great to know it's not just you...So many of us have been where you are...I know I have. 

Good luck with your nursing course!  Hopefully you will be sooooo busy studying that food will be a second thought!  When I study...

The poch test is awesome for the "new" feeling and a little confidence...We'll be rooting for ya!

Hugs

You definitely CAN do this! It sounds like you're in a good place and ready to roll! Good Luck and keep us posted!

Congrats on getting started on those nursing classes.  I know you have been wanting to do that for a while.  You can get back on track.  Just be diligent and never give up.  You can do it.  I know how strong willed you are since we grew up in the same stomping grounds.  LOL.  I am here if you need anything. 

Speaking of our old stomping grounds, I have not been home in so long since all of my family now lives here.  We only have John's mom left in Monroeville.  And she likes to come see us.  More to do here.  But, I am thinking I may come for a visit in the fall and go to Monroe Academy or Excel's homecoming.  We will probably choose one or the other to come home for instead of trying to make it to both.  Got to find out when those are so I can make some plans.  Maybe I can see you then.
