You never know how your post may help someone

Case in point....me. I was all set to come here today and say goodbye. That would only have been because I made the comittment to post every day for a year. I'm getting all discomboberated (sp?), not losing...and last night when I went out I said...(~#$% it) Ate, drank and was merry. This morning I was going to post that I'm giving up doing lc...and started reading posts in my journal....then went to other journals...and some of the things I read really spoke to me, and I've decided to clean up my act and my food...and stick with it.

The point I'm trying to make is....how important every post that's made here is. Doesn't matter if it's a great epistle..or just a little one liner...it helps.

So TDC, your stuck with me for the at least the remainder of the year... :dazzle:

RIGHT ON!! You hit the nail on the head. Support is absolutely a key ingredient in success, imo. I'm glad you're staying!!!!!!!!!!!!

[elhill]

You deserve to be healthy! Stick with it. I know it is sometimes hard to find the motivation--but you just have to do it. Just picture yourself a year from now! Good luck!

I'm glad you decided not to quit, too. As long as you don't quit, you haven't failed!

You just proved that you are going to win at this weight loss event. You can do this!!

I'm so proud of you for realizing how much you really want to win this battle. You'll make it, just take it one day at a time. You will have many ups and downs along the way and at times want to quit but hang on in there!

Reading your post has inspired me. After only LCing for a couple of weeks, I had an absolutely horrid weekend.

It's funny how when you fall off the band wagon, you feel like such crap... feeling like you'll just NEVER get it right.

Reading your post reminds me that I am not alone and also to get back to it tomorrow! Thank you!!

[gweny70]

You are so right Baron! And just like you were inspired and encouraged by someone else's post...you have now encouraged and supported others out there too! It's such a wonderful thing!! Have a GREAT day!!

I was happy to read the end of your post, because I like talking to you!!!

If you make this a way of life, then you can accept the stumbling blocks without getting off the path. Some people are able to walk it without any falls, some aren't. Just decide to stay on the path no matter what-----and no matter what you eat...

It is better to eat off plan for a night for whatever reason, and get back on the next morning, than to eat off plan and use that as an excuse to beat yourself up, give up, get depressed and go back to old habits. It's just a night off plan, nothing else, the path is still there!!!

I made a committment to come here whether I have a good day or not; I will tell you very honestly that since I started back on this plan I have had a few bad days!!!!! I used to be my own worst enemy---"I already blew it, what's the point?", but now I just reorganize and make the effort again---and over time it is working for me...

You'll be here for the next year? Good, we'll be here together!!!!
