    I confess, even with some serious issues I am overall happy and at a good place in life.

    Sometimes I throw all of the recycling into the trash compactor instead of sorting through it and putting it into the right place.

    I think somebody might just tell your mom about this.

    Somebody on here knows my wife. That's my real problem.

    She's suspected for years that I might not always sort the recycling...

    in certain parts of austin, you could be arrested for that.

    about 13 years ago I had bought a new car. I only had it for about a week and decided to stop at the bank to deposit my cheque. I walk to my car and begin to put the key into the lock. "Why is it not going in?" I think to myself. I then look into the back seat and see a child sitting there looking at me. Whoops.....same colour, looked similar, but wrong car! I slowly back away and then swiftly walk towards what was actually my car. Glad the parent didn't come out thinking I was trying to steal their car. haha

    I once got warned by MFP.

    ICF this made me remember something I was thinking the other day that I wished mfp would call me on the phone when I'm eating something I shouldn't be and say "mfp calling, are you sure you really want that blueberry muffin and fat *kitten*?"

    Ahhhh! What does ICF mean? I never know what these acronyms mean. International Coach Federation is the best I got.

    I confess I took someone else's car after having mine resprayed. A Ford Escort Mk II (UK) I was in town with friends, went to the car park in the rain, got in, started it, drove it round to pick up my friends who sat in McDonalds staring at me and when I went in they pointed out 'this' Escort is the wrong colour.

    I confess, after hearing *again* from my mother that my family is excited to see me because they've heard about my weight loss and that they are proud of me... I am incredibly nervous about showing up and still being fat and disappointing them. 70 pounds lost is a lot, and it's awesome... I know that. But I can't help but feel like they'll see all the work still left to do and not all the work already done.

    I confess I bite my tongue a lot. Figuratively speaking.

    You see that. They won't. Trust me.

    Haha, funny that your key worked.

    I also dropped my brother's car off to have a car stereo installed. After it was done, I picked up the keys and got into the car. The door was unlocked and figured they just left it unlocked. I put the key into the ignition but it wouldn't turn. I then noticed it was a manual transmission. Turns out it was the same car, same colour.

    I confess I literally bite my tongue at work. The pain gets my mind off of what I want to say to some of these people.

    They'll notice all your hard work. Most importantly though, be proud of yourself and keep focused on your goals.

    Walk in there with confidence knowing you look better with 70 lbs gone and everyone will see how great you look now. If they focus on what you have left to lose, they are just trying to get the focus off of their imperfections.

    Gurl, you just need to walk up in there like you own the place! You've worked hard. Own it!

    Thanks y'all... It's hard for me to see it because unless I'm looking at the pictures I still see me + 70 pounds in the mirror. I know these people love me and there's only one that would say anything negative to me at all. And I also know I probably won't even be noticed while everyone is processing their grief, but still... Irrational though it may be, I'm still really nervous about their reaction. Ugh.

    As far as I know...the sheriff in my parts only investigates murders.
