Hello Everyone,


SO I have been gone for a WHILE now and I have some explaining to do. I must admit that I dropped off mostly because I was embarrassed with my performance. I had lost 20 pounds and then went back up 6 pounds and I was not happy with that at all. I didn't want to disappoint you the way I had disappointed myself. Additionally, how could I give good advice if I was starting to fail myself. Well I have got back on the wagon and have lost 5 of the 6 pounds I gained and so I am almost back to my new starting point. I am feeling good about it and really want to continue.

I need not be so hard on myself. If I didn't see a change everyday I was becoming frustrated. Now I am trying to take things slower. My problem has been its all or nothing. I am either binging or depriving myself of food and I know that is not at all healthy. I now have a good balance going and hopefully I can continue. The one thing I am concentrating on is that if I mess up one day that is no excuse to continue doing so. We all mess up, but its what we do after that sets us apart. Ok so I have one bad day. IT ENDS THERE.

Well that is all I am going to say about that because I could go on all day. I hope the relationships I made here on SF or not gone and that you will welcome me back. I value you all and am glad to be back.


Hugs

Nope, don't be embarrassed, be proud that you came back!! You are already winning the battle, since you know that there is no reason to let one bad day throw your whole plan off track. Hugs to you- I hope you can pick up your success where you left off. :)

HEY LOOK who's back!!!! yea!!! YOU were greatly missed. AND I am so glad you are back!!! YOU cant LOSE me that easy.....( is that a happy thing, or a threat??? Hmmmm) AND yes YOU need to stop being so hard on yourself. I really think....no I KNOW....each persons journey is their OWN. BUT the one common ground I think we all have to find....is THAT balance. No one is perfect.....NO ONE.....and SO heck to have a bad day....happens. Forgiving yourself....and moving on....THATS the lesson. heck..... IM totally forgiving myself for the mexican yesterday....margaritas.....birthday cake....( oh and there was a brownie in there too....ugh) ha ha. SO with that said.... I AM so glad you are back. Missed you! this is YOUR journey......YOUR human and your learning.....( we all are) and THATS what were all here for....Support!!! SO with that said....WELCOME back.... yea!
