  • Boy, Have I Fallen

    I decided as I was falling asleep last night that it was time to come back. I'm tired of feeling like this, esp when I KNOW I can feel much better and happier. I don't have a lot to say right now as I'm feeling pretty embarrassed, humble, and downright stupid!
    But hopefully in a couple days I'll be feeling better!

    Welcome back!

    Girl, you are not alone. Your words could be mine. I just came back last night after work ~ not too far before you had your epiphany.

    You will DEFINITELY be feeling better...very soon.

    Hang in there and don't be down on yourself. You made the right decision to come back and for each day that passes you will feel better and better and better...

      Welcome back,
      I'm in the same boat. I could have started back two years ago but it took gaining a lot of weight for me to make the decision. I'm still pondering how it's going to be different this time, just ending my first week of induction. I'm leaving that question open, hoping that in doing so I will be open to answers when moments when I need to hop back on the wagon come. I do know that having compassion for ourselves is important.
      Good luck and congratulatons to you on making it back!

        Welcome back, Cynthia. Al is right on - having compassion for ourselves is very important. Don't be too hard on yourself. You've made a huge leap just by making the decision it's time for you to come back. *hugs*

            Yep, you are gonna feel so much better in a week, once you get through some detox, and start getting your focus. You should feel a great mental/emotional relief, but wait til you are just very hungry again, and can manage without eating all the time! Wait, it will only get better from there! You know, you will find it all over again....
