  • Yes!!!! It's a three day weekend-or four day. I hope everyone enjoys themselves!
  • Thanks ladies! The support here is awesome!
  • Doing a quick drive by. There's so much that I missed and have to catch up on. It's currently 2am and guess whose still up! Can't remember where I left off: Went home for the 4th of July, a few days with the family. Mother is still the same. Went home mid Aug for a funeral. One of my mother's siblings passed. She's still…
  • Thank you all for your support. I do have to let her go. It's so hard and I do feel helpless at times. I'm going to write a letter to her primary doctor. So I can voice my concerns and have it for her file. I can't remember who suggested NAMI. I've been going to family support for at least six years. It's a life saver. I…
  • Congrats Liz! Wishing your son and Andrew all the love and light! Noodle your neighbor is blessed to have you in her corner. I'm sure she appreciates all you do. I lost it today. My Mom has to move and she's still in her house! Yet, I hear that she's recording video. I'm sure the video is full of her illness talk! I don't…
  • This week: 1. Stay within calorie goals. 2. Three cardio sessions this week. Nothing crazy or extreme but I got to get moving. My goal is 20min each. 3. Stress management! Prayer, meditation, journaling, whatever it takes!

  • Wow, we're seven months into the year! It's been trying these past few months. I'm no where near where I want to be but I'm still better off than this time last year. It's been a struggle but I'm not giving up. I'm just going to dust myself off and keep moving forward. I definitely need to manage my stress levels and get…
  • The good: I remained and still am binge free. I enjoyed the folks that enjoyed me. I got to see my two great nephews, two and eight months. They're so cute and chunky! The bad: Siblings haven't changed a bit. All of a sudden our mom is my mom! Gee thanks! Speaking of which, found out some very disturbing news about our…
  • Thanks everyone for the family support. It means so much to me. I hit the road tomorrow and I'll be back next week. I hope everyone has an awesome holiday weekend. I'm determined to enjoy myself, spend quality time with family members who appreciate me, remain binge free, and drama/negativity free!
  • Hey Noodle! Glad you guys were able to all eat nutritiously. I know what you mean about C F, when I do go I don't bother. I'm a bit stressed and worried. Typical family drama that I'm rolling into over the holidays. Nothing is within my control and that's what's driving me batty! I just have to let people be who they are.…
  • Congrats Cindy, you've raised a beautiful young woman. Great plan Barb! It's good that you are come up with plans that don't involve food. Hopefully you'll inspire your dad and he can join you on this journey. Sorry about the trees Liz. Too bad your neighbor is a jerk. You'd think they'd at least offer to help. I hope all…
  • Megan take all the time you need. Know that we're here for you. Cindy I will definitely let you guys know how it works out. I'm thinking I'll give it a try after the holidays. I'll be traveling to visit family. Thanks for the positive vibes and well wishes Liz. I hope everyone has a great weekend :)
  • I'm hooked already Cindy! It's like I've found the light, lol. It's a great way to get in fruits and veggies. I've even found out how I can make my own protein powder. I can use the milling blade for flaxseeds and mix that with chia seeds. I'm definitely going to give that a try. Tell Kyli congrats
  • Well I definitely succeeded with #1. I'm still binge food and binge free! This week, I want to make smoothies for breakfast. And move this body.

  • Thank you ladies for your encouragement. I missed you guys! Liz, yay for almost being done with the kitchen. You guys have put it done work. Hang in there Karen. Barb has given done great advice.
