    Wow, I can actually answer yes to all of your questions.

    I'm an Elementary Reading Teacher. I know what you mean about all the goodies that people bring into work. It's hard. Whenever I see all the snacks I tell myself that those foods are poison to my body and try and get away from them as soon as possible.

    I have two cats

    I am taking Tamoxifin to reduce my chances of getting cancer. (have had precancer cells removed twice) I'm also hypoglycemic.

    If I want to eat something sweet, I make it myself using healthier ingredients.

    Don't care what the scale says, but use it to keep myself on track.

    Postive most of the time, except on the few days a year I throw a pity party for myself.

    My initials are KMS too

    Crazy similarities! KMS is kinda creepy :)

    Oh and have DEFINITELY thrown myself a pitty party or two... most normal people have!
  • Good tip! I never thought of this.
  • All of these, actually, except for the cat- I have two chihuahuas who are cat-sized, so does that count? ;-)

    Oh, and for the teacher part, I was just thinking of starting a thread myself about that! I have a month until I go back and already the first day of preplanning, lo and behold, our principal is taking the whole staff out at 4 pm for early dinner and drinks at some posh restaurant, not to mention the cocktail parties and back to school dinners all the first two weeks, in conjunction with treats most days in the lounge. I have fairly good willpower but I'll be a month into my journey and I already have to find ways to attend and resist!!! Aghhhhh
