Re: Buddy List June 30th - July 6th
Well, not everyone is strong all the time, I am glad you are though, Joe. I was strong up to a point. I certainly don't want to be one to bring you down, no way would I wish that. But I clearly came here this morning for support, I don't want to quit, I needed encouragement after doing a dumb thing, and I outright asked for support. So I guess I am wondering if this is or isn't a place to talk about the ups and downs, because keeping it real is what motivates some people. To meet and be able to talk to people who make mistakes and then pick themselves back up again, IS supportive. Or maybe this section, or whole board, for that matter, is just supposed to be all positive? I dunno, maybe we need to ask Elsie, this is her thread.
I admit that I was put off by your telling me to just go ahead and quit, although I can understand your point also. After reading your response I was ready to just call it quits, I even texted bf to see if he wanted to just be done, I could pick up some "normal" groceries after school today. Then I came back and read what the girls had to say, it was what I needed, and I hope to be able to succeed and pass that on to others when they are down.
But I have come far, I lost 10 in induction, I quit caffeine and the occasional smoke just to be healthier. I worked out hard for the past few days, and I feel great! I did not eat ONE wrong thing for 3 weeks! That is a huge accomplishment! I messed up, but I feel that I deserve to be here just as much as the next person. It would be a shame to be fake, and say it is going fine, I know it won't always be that way. I think bf is going to bail and I will have to do this on my own, I need the support I have found here! Vent done, I just want to stick with it for the summer and see what happens. I hope amazing things will be in store for us all.

I have lost only 1 measly pound in the past 4 weeks but in have been losing inches steadily. If I hadn't been measuring I probably would have given up by now. I just ordered a new scale that does body fat, water, and bone density. It was only about $40 and is highly recommened by this site 
And, yes I can already tell that the 6mec is motivating me.. this morning I excersized on the stationary bike for 1 hour ( = 22.5 mi!) It feels incredible!

They are very snug on me right now, but I know that I will fit into them by then, if I have to work out 2 hours a day!!! Anyway, I have 
ONE NIGHT OF PARTYING IS NOT WORTH IT!!!
(Pumbaa said that once, you know, from Lion King, teeehee) 
I wish I would have known how bad it would be on me, I could have been an extra voice in your head, sorry!! I am on track again thanks for your words too!! 
It is super easy to fall into that! We need to learn that food is not that big of a deal, need to treat it more like a thing we have to do, a necessity, not as a reason to splurge.. You know what I am saying? Yes, I am well away from the legde! LOL! I have size M pants and shirts to fit into in less than 6 weeks!!!
