Default I'm baaaaaaaaack!

Hello ladies.

It has been far too long. For those who IM'd me checking up on me, I truly appreciate it. A lot has been going on, to say the least.

I have been more or less maintaining for a while. While I am not completely proud of that, I am also not going to let it get me down. I should have been losing, but other priorities in life took over. At least I wasn't gaining it all back, right?

I visited my friend the scale the other day, for the first time in a while, and it showed a gain I did not want to see. It's a different scale that I had been using, and I'm not sure what the number on the old one would have been (the one I originally used), but the gain was significant either way, and it made me disappointed in myself. The first thing I thought was, "I need to get back to 3FC. Those girls will keep my butt in line!" So here I am. I have been busy and a lot has been going on, but don't think for a second that I haven't had you guys on my mind throughout it all. There still aren't enough hours in the day, but I can't slack on my health, so I know I can take the time to be here.

Hopefully I'm not shunned for slacking.

Winter, I'm so glad you came back! Yes, you have been through some rough times, but it's time to make yourself and your health the priority. Shun you? No way!

So good to hear from you! And of course, shunning is out of the question.

Welcome back and good luck getting back on track. You and your health deserve it.

When I checked back here today and saw all your welcome-backs, I'm not gonna lie...a little tear or two may have escaped. I have missed you all so much. Life has been so busy, and I probably needed the break, but I think about so many of you all the time. I don't "know" any of you, but it feels like family when I am here. This is such an awesome place. What would I ever do without you girls?
