smartin585's Journal, 29 October 2013

You guys don't know how much happier I am now that I can eat....this past month was so hard on me on many levels...I got yelled at by a friend today for never being there and she is right I wasn't there...she always wanted to skype at 1am my time (she is in Horn of Africa) and I just couldn't stay up that late or during the day time I would be in a bad mood (from starving) and not feel like talking. I became totally introverted...which is so not me...the only place I talked was on here because I knew you guys would understand. Now I'm over 20 lbs lighter ,but I also have to fix some of my friendships. Sigh....

It will get better. Being on such a low cal diet, doctor or no doctor, takes it toll on people emotionally as well as physically. In time your friends will understand, forgive and forget. Your first twenty pounds will definitely be the hardest, here is to a better path ahead :-)

You needed to do this for you. Your friend should be a bit more understanding. It was one month you took for yourself to get through it, don't ever apologize for doing what you need to do to be healthy. Sorry, it just irks me when you are obviously going through something and you are yelled at by a friend for not calling.

It will get better. When you are feeling better,give your friend a call and explain. I'm sure she'll understand. Hope all goes well!!

Sorry, diet or no diet, this is not a friendship. A person asking you to wake up at 1:00a.m. to accommodate their time zone. Nonsense. You don't have to apologize. You don't have to tell her anything. Her demands were not those made by a friend. If you feel the need to call her, tell you it's ridiculous for you to have to be up at 1:00a.m. and that the two of you, not her, will have to decide on a decent time. Don't let this upset you. You're doing what you have to do for yourself and you come first. And if she can't understand, tough munchies.

Love your no-nonsense response, CR. I agree with you on this one.

I'm with CR too! Unrealistic to expect a 1 am Skype! Keep up your great work towards a healthier you... the friendships will remain, IF she is more realistic with you... :)
