Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero

A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople.  I loved the community of that place and the support I got there.  It was at the height of us being on our game.  That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation.  You start to feel human.  You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere.  You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned.  Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away.  We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively.  When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...

Happy Thanksgiving!



May your day be less ominous than this old school postcard!

So thankful for all of you!  Those who comment, those who don't.  Those who read regularly and those who check in from time to time. I know that you are here because you choose to be and I don't take that for granted.  Even thankful for those who have left to continue their own journies being inspired by others in theirs.

For those going out in the masses today to shop, I beg of you to not skirt time with family for the sake of deals you can get online Monday.  (Just put them in your cart, refresh it at 12:01am and hit Place Order)  No matter how young or old, the same people may not be there next year and deals are not limited to today and tomorrow anymore.  Absorb all of the love, laughs and even occasional irritations...some of us would give anything to have them with those we loved.

Thank you for your support, friendship and wishing you all the blessings you deserve!
