Pink - Reading all your posts is like being tugged back and forth... yay for your self restraint but still allowing yourself a treat, aaaaaaugh at your stupid roommate leaving a stupid chocolate stash and her cat and whatever the heck else, yay for a space to yourself, but boo for the loneliness that can come along with it... you get the point. Still, sending moderate-distance hugs your way... *Hugs from Ottawa!*
Lindy - How frustrating that your life changes rely on everyone else's schedules... but at the same time, I guess it's understandable since you will need their help so much. I'm glad to see what a positive and patient outlook you have on it, though, and that you won't be deterred by having to wait. Baby steps until you can make some bigger steps, right? And way to go on the outings, and all the changes you've made so far!!!
Rat - I read this "There was a time I could polish off a bag or box of crackers!" and thought I was reading my own writing! Sounds like you have a great and workable plan for you, though, and I admire that!
Jacquie - Ugh isn't weight loss just exhausting? Gets to where you feel like all you think about is weight, and numbers, and food, and exercise, and, and, and... I feel more obsessed with food now that I ever have been in my life. Just wanted to weigh in on that (pun intended). Also, mega-props to you for recognizing the value in YOUR time!
Oh lordy what I week I've had. School drama, family drama, ex-boyfriend drama... etc... not stuff I want to get into because it's causing me so much stress, but suffice it to say that knowing I have a place to come and vent or celebrate or just waste time with all of you has been very comforting, even though I haven't been terribly active in my posts. Did have a fantastic time at the party on Friday, though, and some of the pictures are up... and I look good in them! Happy and whatnot, here... I'll share. I'm second in, from the left, for any of you who aren't sure. Not a great body shot, but the point isn't how skiiiinny I look (I don't) but how happy and healthy I feel like I look in it. Especially compared to say, this past Christmas... I dunno, maybe I'm imagining the difference, but who cares. I feel better, that's what matters, right?
