SuccessThisTime58's Journal, 04 March 2015

What REAL difference should it make to me what "strangers" think of me and/or my efforts to become "healthier"???
For starters, even the folks about whom we know nothing, are not truly "strangers" here on FS. If we are here, whether we need to lose 5 lbs. OR 405 lbs., we understand the struggles- - - of walking away from temptation and of "giving in"; the letdown of seeing no loss for the day, or week; the bitter pill of seeing a gain, when we honestly were expecting a loss, the challenge of already eating everything on our food plan and its only 7 PM and out stomach is saying "I need at least ONE more snack".
So all of us here have a lot in common. Also, it is universal(in my opinion) that we like/want/need to be accepted in various ways. And here at FS we have various opportunities to give and to receive SUPPORT. When I first began to share my weigh-ins, even befoe I posted a bio, some very nice folks "supported" my weighin, and I thought "well, that's kinda nice". Although I had been here since Sept.2011, I did not even know how to support someone's weigh-in, because I was just here to log my food and to log my weight progress. That was a mistake. One I am glad I have corrected. So,whether you are a Buddy, a regular "supporter", an occasional "commenter" or someone who is reading my words for the first time today - - I say "thanks for caring" and if I can ever offer words supportive of your efforts AND/or life situation, please let me know.

Everything you said rings so true to me. This time around, I have tried to pay much more attention to the community than any of my previous experiences with FS and it does make so much difference to feel that support and take comfort that there are others out there going through it with me.
