Hi Everyone
I have something to tell you. I honestly think that a person is as strong-willed as she/he wants to be. I didn't realize this until tonight. Today was day 31 being OP.I have been doing so good and it's like a dream that I have gone this long being OP.Tonight though, something "almost" changed this. I ate dinner and about an hour later, I had my hands on the last box of Girl Scout cookies (Tangalongs)!!!

I honestly think I could have eaten the whole box if I hadn't had a "talk" with myself. I layed the cookies down and went to the bathroom & cried.About 20 minutes later, I went back to the cookies, ATE ONLY 1 and went right next door and gave them to my neighbors!!!

(Wayne & Drew don't like them). Now is this strong-willed or what?! I asked myself if I wanted to throw away 30 days of making the right choices for one night of a box of damn cookies!!! You don't know how proud I am of myself tonight. This time last year I would have said "The **** with this! I'll eat them and try again on Monday!" BUT NOT THIS TIME!!!!!!
I wanted to share this with you.Especially the ones that aren't posting and having a hard time staying OP.I KNOW how hard it is and I KNOW how you feel. NO ONE can do this for you except YOURSELF! All we can do here is... be your friend, cheer you on, motivate, support and love you no matter what.
If I can do this...then believe you me, Anyone can!!! I have never been this motivated before.If I fail, please continue to love me & pick me up.
Thank you all so much for being my friend.I'm always here for you as you are me. The ones that are "missing", I hope that this letter will make it "click" and you'll try harder to get back OP and start posting again.I miss you so much.
Hugs........
