Down 3 more pounds!

Postby Lulie » May 2nd, 2006, 9:03 pm

Hi,

I am down 3 more pounds. Weighed in this am. "Uncle Tom" has been visiting, so that is pretty good I imagine.

It has been very difficult. But thank God I have been able to resist the temptations. I never realized I was motivated to eat by emotions until Medifast. It really keeps you in tune with what you are doing. We have been going through so many bad things. If I told you it all, you would probably not believe it. My hubby's 19 yr old niece died in a car wreck on Easter. His aunt just died. My momma cat that we have had for years got killed and I had to nurse her litter of 1 1/2 wk old kitties. (they are gonna be 5 wks Friday), our faithful friend and dog we have had for several years just died, and the list goes on.....

I can't tell you how hard it was not to start eating. I never realized that I ate when upset until now.

I should have came here for support, but I am kinda a private person and try to deal with things alone too much. I need to change in that aspect. I did come and read and posted a little to get my mind off things, and that helped.

I am really thankful for this board and the people here. You are all inspirational.

Lulie, even though you are a private person, always realize that no one here EVER judges. You would be surprised to hear some of the things that we all go through. Use us all as a sounding board and at the very least, use the forum to vent, cry or scream whenever you need it. We can't actually see or hear you but we can all "feel" you. So take advantage of all of the support and lean on us for love and prayers. :bighug: Keep smiling...even if you have to frown, stand on your head and do it so it looks like a smile!

So sorry about your losses Lulie! :hug: :hugblue: Well, you've been pushed to the limit with temptations and have succeeded in spite of it all. What a TEST you've endured and PASSED with flying colors! :thumbsup: You've gone through the worst and nothing is gonna stop you now.

Hi Lulie,

Lifelovenaries said EVERYTHING I could EVER HOPE to say to you. I'm sorry all this came at you like a freight train, but you've handled it with grace.

You're a private person and that's fine, but if you EVER need us to talk to, vent to, ANYTHING, we're here!

On a small note, way to go with the 3 lbs even with life happening ALL around you!

We're here, we'll always be here!
