I have a mantra for when fella and I are rounding the corners off of each other "I WILL NOT RESENT ANY OF THIS, NONE OF THIS WILL BE IN VAIN."

If blowups can lead to better teaming, then I would really like it if we did not have to blow up, but I am thankful for the better tools for the teaming. 

Proud on you both.  Like I say, growing up is only glamorous to the folks who have not had to do it yet.  :}

"sqeeze right back"

Thanks ole' wise one!  I am glad you are proud of me.  I was hoping you would be, you know that!?  I really am trying...  we 'have' both grown from this, so I would say it was a success...

No glamor in that whole scenario, until today of corse!  I sure do love my man, and his patience and understanding...  He only blows, which is very rare, when I get on his last nerve.  Yesterday was no exception, he just took it further than usual.  Calling the ***** a '*****' did not help! lol

Thanks for being here for me, I want to do this, all of this, dealing with 'me' will take work on all parts of 'me' not just my food intake, and I know that.  But man it is hard!

Hugs,

Cindy

goodmorning/afternoon   checking in.....

still doing my clean eating not sure if its working or not but will keep going..


Im proud of you cindy for not binging which is what the "old" cindy prob would have done....

I think the biggest part of this journey is getting to know our selves and being in control..not allowing food to have that power....

so congrats, and great to hear that you have it all sorted now thats even better.

Hi Linda,

Thanks so much, yes the old Cindy definatley would have went on a rampage with food, over reactions, yelling, etc...  I was so proud of myself.  I really am trying to grow up, and it is starting to happen.  That was a very big test for me, and I passed with flying colours.  We will see how I do next time... I expect to get better and better at it, until it is easy and second nature.  And I reaize I am a long way from that, but will take it one day at a time...

I have finished the 10 Thin Commandments and I am re-reading Shrink Yourself...  I can attribute some of my new found maturity and coping techniques to them.

I hope your clean eating pays off for you, keep on going and trust that it will not only make you feel better, but show on the scale.

Big hugs and thanks again for your support, it means to the world to me.

Cindy

Random thoughts:
I will ACHIEVE!!! Pretty good day, Had my 1st pre-admission appointment for my panniculetomy next Tuesday. Think the chips might of had to do with a little stress eating was after the phone call.

Hugs and loves

You had a GREAT day!!  It is amazing you were able to stop at a handful of chips, I could not have done that, and it would have led to lots of other eating for the rest of the day or evening...  Good for you!!

How exciting regarding your 1st appointment for your panni removal, won't it be incredible to have the bulk gone and have a nice flat tummy!!!  You must be so excited.  Howeer, I can also understand your stress, perhaps be aware of it, and even plan for it, and have a nice delicious healthy snack ready and waiting for yourself.

Big hugs right back attcha!!

Cindy
