I'm sorry... I've been completely avoiding this (and even the binging thread!) place lately.
I'm just so up and down with my eating. (ya'll know what I mean)
Anyhow, I'm determined to have a clean day today.
Moonbeam, Whirleygirl and Tami, welcome!
(did I miss anyone else?)
Chris, welcome back, you sweet ol' thing you.
I've missed you terribly.
Sweet_Pea, I'm sorry the depression is still hanging on, hon.
Remember that this WILL pass. (I know... easy to say when you're not in the middle of a depression) But it will... hang in there, sweetie.
Elizabeth, I think it's here in Ontario... the government is talking about passing some sort of law to prohibit "all-you-can-eat" buffets. It might sound a bit over the edge, but I think it's not a bad idea. Those buffets are NOT a bargain. I mean, we're not living in the cave days anymore when it was feast-or-famine.
Bev, come on, girl... you can do this.
Don't beat yourself up... just move on.
Kate... I'm so sorry about your mom.
(you, too, Sweet_pea) I know just what you're going through... my mom was/is the same. For years I
just wanted a mom, but it was always me doing the mothering. It's only after years of therapy that I've finally been able to let go this year and realize that it's out of my hands. I can't change her. And I don't care anymore. I've
finally stopped crying for my loss of a mother, and I've just accepted it.
That sounds so simple, but god, it was hard work.
Now I just concentrate on steering her conversation away from "dump sessions". Which is also REALLY HARD WORK!
Kate, be strong. Her life is hers... it's what she makes it. Don't let it interfere with who you are.
Stephie, are you still there?
How are you doing?
Jodi, I love how you come creeping out of the woodwork and then slink back in.
Get back here, girl!
Chelsea, how are things going with you?!
Sharon, you're exercising and eating well right now, right?
It's Sunday.
_knot, hang in there... we're right behind you, sweetie.
Did I miss anyone?
I'm going to go and get a healthy breakfast (with some protein), and eat right ALL DAY!
And so are you!
