Hey guys!
Just a quick note... glad to hear that everyone is doing well. I am exhausted, I have a 5 day weekend next week which is killer since I am about to drop from going so much. I pretty much just chilled out this weekend, enjoyed DH and Kids. Trying to get as much Christmas shopping done as possible since I don't officially get out of school until Dec 11 and I don't want to be scrambling in the last minute crowds again(this has been pretty routine) I have my kids almost finish, have several family members left to by for but hey.... it is going pretty smoothly... last year I ordered most of the kids gifts on-line (which I am doing again this year) but I ordered them from a company that thought to be reputable- went bankrupt like 2 weeks after christmas and I didn't ever receive over half of the Presents so .. I was out the week before Christmas digging for something... it was terrible!!!
Wildfire ~ I am glad that DD is doing so much better.. I was out of school for almost 2 months in 5TH? I think it was awful... I don't think I have ever felt quite so bad. Glad you have such sticktoittiveness... it will eventually catch...
Flower ~ Glad your still doing good and yes I think every normal person that has a problem or has something happen(such as feeling stupid or doing something wrong) turns to food at some point you just have to find those triggers and put a stop to them... instead of popping in chips when it happens grab some gum or water... if that doesn't help .. go to the carrot sticks.
Good luck sweetie...
Goddess ~ You still running on your winning streak? I can't say I have been 100% OP but I have stuck to my calories, just not always with the best foods
but I deserved the cheating... I can't say that I didn't! Wasn't you guys that told me that as long as it wasn't to the extreme that every once in a while wouldn't kill me. Maybe not, I might have dreamed that!
Well, I am down a little more... I am 11 pounds from goal but have you ever been that close and still looked in the mirror and you don't see where you have changed? I know I wear smaller clothes I had to buy them but I just don't feel thinner and I don't look thinner to myself. What do you think causes that? I mean I know I have lost weight the scales say it, I know I have lost weight because my clothes show it, but I look in the mirror and I still see nothing but fat.... It is going on a year... that I have been on this diet and I have lost it slowly and methodically and it has taken forever so maybe since I see myself everyday that is why it doesn't look different? Any opinions on this? Gotta go... I will check in soon...
Hugs to all,
Amy
