FLOWERDUDE's Journal, 24 January 2011

Oh Steve, that is so true. I really think once the weather starts to thaw our energies will being to soar. But please, do something new. Just don't get discouraged. I am right there with you. 

I think alot of us are struggling with this horribly cold winter. Unfortunately it is too early to say, "Oh, spring is almost here". We will get thru this! 

Steve, vent away, we all do. Its funny that you say as you get closer to goal you find yourself want to eat, and eat and eat and yet you know you aren't hungry. You are craving the safety of your old fat self, esepcially with this trip looming. Your insecurities are rearing their ugly head. I am sure with the help of your buddies here and your own good common sense that you can tackle that issue. I hope you had a fantastic time away and I am sure the kids were fine without you. You do a great job being a single parent and losing all this weight and holding down a full time career and making us all drool on FS. Luv ya buddy. Hang strong. 

Steve you are not alone...with craving comfort foods, especially with the warm weather, I really do think our bodies move to a hibernation type mode....and crave additional fats...etc. Vent away it really does help. Have a wonderful day.  

Steve, why don't you eat some of evies soup! I hear it's magic! Lol nice on a cold day! 

Yes, Steve, please try the soup. I just made some today. Would love to send you some. Have a great evening my friend! 

Steve think of your trip..Getting out of Dodge, Seeing your buddies, any thine but food...Take care of you.....Bren 

Steve, I completely understand! It is so frustrating! Hang in there darlin', it'll get better!
