"Getting that are you losing wt. comment?

Hi BOTT, I have been trying to survive this battle!! ( I have been MIA too) I am still here!! My eating has been off, for a few days. I got a little depressed in the middle of last wk. I did not pass my State certification exam, which had me down in the dumps!
And then low and behold, I have had a few comments, (3) different people saying, "Are you losing wt.?" Or" you are losing wt.! " YES, I AM TRYING!?
I can't see it of course?? but I want to. I know it just takes time for the body to catch up with the wt. loss. But it is one heck of a motivator for me! All this effort is paying off. Ranging from 15-16lbs. down. in the first month. So with that being said, I have got to get back to it y'all. My graduation is just a few short weeks away. Perhaps I will get back into that dress, that I am thinking about wearing, from some years ago! I wore it to my 20 year HS reunion, 6 yrs. ago! I still have it. I remember looking so good in it too! So that will also be my motivation for the next few weeks leading up to my graduation date.
March 15th is the big day. Although I did not pass my exam, I can still participate in the graduation ceremony, I just would have felt better about it. I may take the exam again before the Big date or wait until after? What do you think?
Let me know.

We all have issues and we all here because we need support and reminder to get back on track when we get distracted. 

Positive comments are very encouraging... That is wonderfull...Keep plugging along.. 

As for the exam - you know yourself better and if you take the test closer to graduation - would you be more stressed than if you take it later ?  You only know what is best for you.,.. 

I know, I have to make up my mind.
I think I may just go and enjoy my graduation ceremony and worry about tests when I get back.

Congratulations on the positive comments from the folks around you!! Isn't amazing how a few kind words can re-energize us and motivate us to keep on plugging away.  I know the state exam had to throw you for a loop....just remember it's a hurdle not the end of the race.  You're still on track for graduating and you can reschedule to take the exam when you're ready - plus you know what to expect on this one.  You've got this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks I need the push!!
