Hey Everybody,

I just want to sit downand touch base with the group here, First off Free we miss you and I know you can.

I am on Day 11 of my BDS prep. Almost time to start the actual " Meal Plan" I have chosen. This group is fantastic the way we have daily accountability and just general conversations giving opinions and ideas. Thats what we need it helps to keep us on track, when I want to mess up or fall off the plan I get on line and look and read through the entire OH. Of all the groups this is my most favorite, it gets personable I feel I personally know each of you and I hope you feel the sme about me.

I don't know whether to say I am scared or not I almost done with the prep now and now I gotta actually start the meal plan and the thinking and do this for the rest of my life. I am determined to make this work. Becks is the most sensible rationalization process, and it's so simple. I know we can all do it.

Why am I scared I don't know, I am just glad each of  you are here so I can vent.
Was anybody else scared to actually implement what they've learned over the past 14 days leading up to this lifestyle change. Let me know and if so what did you do about it...

Melva, I was wondering what day you were on.
We are such a small group that the more we post, the more we will get to know one another and the easier it will be to give each other advise and encouragement.

I think its okay to be scared, I get scared because of the fear of failure and the unknown. The thing to remember is that everything is not going to change over night. We all have some re-programming to do! I remember when I first had surgery how drinking was so hard…I was thirsty and I want to guzzle tha****er but I couldn’t because it hurt, but each time I had a drink…… I was able to drink just a little more and now I’m a big time guzzler.

What I am trying to say is baby steps, if you slip that’s okay acknowledge it, use your tools and move on.

I think the most helpful thing for me is to put my feelings and failures out there and to ask for help and support. I want to be there for you gals to give encouragement and support. We have to remember we are walking on new ground and each day there is a different door to walk though, and that we don’t have to walk thought those doors alone “we have each other"

Melva, I think doing what you are doing now is the best way to deal with the upcoming changes; come to OH, read your Advantage list also rereading some of the past days is really helpful.

We can do this!!!!!

1st time 01/31/2010 - 03/14/2010 lost 13 lbs

Exercise is not an option
Be aware of cravings and desires
Plan meals today for tomorrow

Beverly, you seem to be getting how to work in this support group.  Yes, we all work at our own pace, but people who are further along with working their Days can tell others how they worked earlier days.  I mean that, since you are working on something like Day 24, you are uniquely qualified to help someone else work who is working any Day prior to that.  Just remember that there is really no right or wrong way to work individual Days.  And, based on how people completed their intro chapters' questionaires, they should be aware of what they want from the program.  Some people may just want to lose weight.  Others may want to gain confidence.  Benefits of weight loss are personal.  I don't look forward to buying new clothes and that may be a negative to weight loss.  However, most people--men and women --look forward to being able to fit in smaller sizes. 

Thanks for your active participation.
