Hello everyone,

I have been gone for almost 3 months because I was in Europe. I have now moved back home and am looking for a new job in a new city etc etc. I am looking forward to getting back in touch with everyone and to getting back on track. Today was my first cycling class since I got back. I had gone for a run a few times to get back in the grove after 3 months of no workouts at all other than walking with my backpack but that doesnt do much. So Im really excited to have my own apartment, which I am also working on, and to be able to have only food that I allow into the house. The place I am looking at is right by my gym so hopefully I will get it!

Keep up the good work everyone.

Dreamer You're in my thoughts and prayers. I hope that everything turns out ok. And don't feel like a user we are here to support eachother.

Thank you to everyone who said how wonderful I look, I look at the pictures or try on my "fat clothing" when I feel like I have a lot of weight to go. This week is ending out ok. I stopped freaking out and talked to one of my friends from school that is in most of my classes today and he helped me out. I'm sure that everything will work out.

You know I didn't even notice that I hit my half way mark. I have been so busy and stressed at work this week. THanks for the encouragement everyone!!!
