so i am embarassed to say that i have been hiding from you all because my last month has been up 2 lbs down 2 lbs. going on four weeks of that i just couldn't come and post my gains. now i have had two small losses in a row and am more confident in myself so i shall return to join in the group. i know that i probably should have stayed through the harder times and it might not have made them so hard. i did continue going to my meetings though. sorry i ran away, but i am back now. and on track too!

Jessica, I am glad to see you back! I am also glad to hear you went to your meetings even though your weight was not always headed down - you are committed! I think everyone understands going through phases with 3FC attendance, just know that no matter how you are doing we'd always love to hear from you!

Oh man can I ever relate! I have been toying with the same 3-5 lbs before goal weight for the past 8 weeks or so! It has been horribly frustrating! I seem to be excruciatingly stuck and maybe even a little burnt out on the whole watching every single morsel that got stuffed into my face! I'm not sure that I've re-committed 100%, but I've been trying Core for the past two weeks. It's been nice not having to write things down, but I do feel more limited.

I, like you, have continued going to meetings, but have found that I'm almost too busy to visit the discussion boards a lot lately as well.

At any rate, good for you for coming back and being honest with us and yourself about your disappearance

I have a tendency to stay away when I'm being bad too - I think most of us do. Congrats on the excellent recent losses though! Way to go!!

thanks everyone! hugs to everyone, i guess i should know that i am not alone or i guess we wouldn't even have this board up here to talk about it. Thanks for being reasuring! you all are great

Welcome and good luck!

I just get anti-social.. lol Don't want to talk to anyone.. just be by myself. Those times I have a hard enough time encouraging myself much less anyone else. So, been there, done that.

Other times I just am too stupid silly and post weird threads... (...do you know where your water bottle is? for example).

But, I find I do have plenty to offer, even when I am having troubles. There is always someone here who has been there and ready to give me a kick in the hiney.. AND others may have the same issue I am having so we aren't alone.

OK.... did ^^^^^ make sense to anyone else other than me?
