~*a little thank you note*~

Hi all!

I just wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU for all of the love, support and reality checks you have all given me these last many days. Really and truly from the bottom of my heart, I am ever grateful for everyone's input and I can already tell a huge difference in my mood and confidence (even with the two little slip ups). I know that this journey is 100% my responsibility but I just have to say that being able to come here and have the support and community of amazing people who know what it's like to be in these shoes I wear means more than words can express. So thank you, to all that have picked me up and told me to get it back together. You've made a huge impact and I feel like a new woman who is ready to take on the world!

I'm glad we could all help

Keep it up! Hope the scale is reacting as well as your mood and confidence!

It's hard... no lies there... and all we can do is get back up and dust ourselves off. I swear being here and posting regularly helps a TON!

Give yourself a pat on the back as well! You deserve grace.

I meant to ask if the herbal tea was helping at night?

It's helping with the habit of wanting to consume something at night and it's a good way to keep me on track but it's still hard for me to not want something else. I'm one of those people that has something crunchy and salty and then I want (or think I need lol) something sweet or chewy or whatever. It is helping though! Thanks for the idea :)

Sometimes I don't ever think those urges go away. Otherwise, I wouldn't be sitting here needing weight loss surgery, amirite?? One day on track at a time!

Just wanted to check in on you, while I was thinking of it.

I hope this finds you a good place.

Doing ok. I was off track over my weekend but I'm back on track. Getting frustrated though because the scale has gone up about a pound everyday and I've been really good since the weekend. It's my own fault though. Now I know that I can't get away with a little cheat day and not pay the price. Thanks for checkin on me

I am rooting for you.

I know you can do this!
