Lurk alot

I lurk alot but have little time to post. I appreciate all of you more than you can possibly know. Kiki, your recent post was more timely than you realize. Thanks for just putting into words what so many of us feel and deal with every day. I have every confidence that you will be one of the long-time success stories because you're so aware of the things that derail you and are so willing to ask for help. Yesterday, I passed on a donut at work because you were on my mind...See how helpful you were? Jeannie and Dee Dee - you're such great motivators and cheerleaders! Thanks for your unfailing support of us all. Jay - love your posts, your humor and your wisdom. Karen & Lynda - thanks for your long-term realism and honest advice. It's sound and I believe much of what you share is vital if we're to be successful over time. I know there are others I'd like to mention, but my time is limited and I've got to run! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Julie

You have picked the right line in which to stand. The other line, the one waiting to kick my butt, is very much longer. Nowhere Man/PH/Jay

*I* love you! ~~Sherry

Julie - congrats on passing up the donut! It helps me to know others are adhering to a little self-discipline and that I'm not the only one out here that struggles at times. I once saw WLS through rose-colored glasses. Honest posts about the trials and temptations we all face (and usually avoid) helps keep things in perspective. DeeDee

Hey Julie. It's great to be lurking among friends! I too am so glad to have stumbled across this powerful community...I only wish I had found all of you sooner! Thanks to you for your post of appreciation, I am happy to help (as best I can) anyone to make the necessary changes today that will make for a successful tomorrow. Thanks to you and all of the WLS Grads...we are a diminishing force to be reckoned with! Karen

Hi Julie! Thanks for coming out of lurker mode to offer such nice thoughts. This is a nice comforting place. I like it too. The people here are great and it is so helpful to know that other's are experiencing some of the same things.

Hi Julie! Thanks for the nice comments. I love to encourage people. It's a gift from God and I try and use it lest I lose it. I appreciate you coming on here and giving the rest of us your wonderful supportive words of kindness. Take care and post when you can. Jeannie
