Hmmmm your initials are not so good, so I'll call you Bear... Thanks for writing Bear!
I went to Optifast and went from 190 to 170 then gained 10 lbs back and now I'm between 175-7. I hated the groups because they were so boring! I started an art class and that help me to head back down. 140 would be a reasonable wt goal for me. Must do better about getting in exercise. I've been doing yard work so that gives me some exercise.
We are headed out for our grand daughter's graduation tomorrow so I'm buzzing around getting ready.
Do you have kids? Glad your going to Disney, it's wonderful with or without kids.
I have so many wonderful memories with my husband and when I'm in the right frame of mind, I see the tough times as either down right heroic or hysterically funny. I deeply believe that misunderstanding each other is the root of all our issues including the sexual ones.
I am very much a stress eater. It is very difficult for me to grapple with whatever is stressing me rather than going for the quick fix of comfort from food. There is a part of me that thinks it would be an absolute miracle for me to loose weight and stabilize it over time. I need to see that it's not only possible but see the path and get my feet on it.
I'll check out the TickerFactory.
Glad your here Bear! When I get a chance I'll read your story.
