Hello NEMom from a VermontMom
I was a SLOW loser too!! it was maddening because I was doing all that I was supposed to. It just took me longer in the beginning. But big Yay
for what you've accomplished already! and think - each and every day that you conclude, you've established yourself a bit more into the routine. This ... is ... for ... life!
I'd say you're allowed to have a pity party, as long as you don't think you can justify a cheat! because that will only make you feel worse later.
Oh and about all the accomplishments and self-accolades on FB.. well..maybe I am a cynic but it is hard to believe alot of that. I'd say look for your support HERE at 3FC
