I am so thankful for this site and everyone who has been supporting me through out this journey. I hope I have helped some people too. This is a hard thing to do and I am beginning to think a lot of it is mental and emotional stuff. When I feel good I want to celebrate by eating or drinking (adult beverages. When I feel bad I want to eat comfort food. I can find more darn excuses to sit on my butt than anyone I know. My home is so comfy and nice it is like returning to the womb lol. The cruise was great but the pictures were a real wake up call. Boy I have lost a lot but it does not show, like I thought it did. So I thought to myself am I going to just chuck it and forget the whole thing or am I going to get down to a reasonable weight. So I have chosen the latter and I know there are others out there who are doing the same. Choices choices choices.

Wow, you could be speaking for me too! Except for the cruise part I can certainly relate. Looking at pictures of myself can all but push me over the edge. The truth is though, we are doing well. For me, I am still fat. Not as fat but with still a long way to go. Today though we are going in the right direction. This next summer we will be looking good in pictures, in our shorts! Keep up the great work and we will make better choices. Forward Motion!

Thanks for the response Diane and please add me as a buddy if you wish. I know we are in the same place mentally and you sound very positive. It is good to have lost what I did and it would be crazy for anyone to minimize our accomplishments at this point or any other time. My friend that went on the cruise with me lost as much as I did and looks great. She has pointed out to me that she it 3 inches taller than me and the camera is not your friend while dieting. She also tells me I am terribly hard on myself. Maybe she is right but i am 5' tall and I am way too heavy for my size so I am back with a vengence and I think I am going to do the Slim fast cause I have a lot of it and I want to use it up. I also have the low carb kind so when I use up the regular I will probably go low carb. lol You keep on keepin on girl. Jane
