If an alcoholic came to a support group and confessed to drinking, support would come in the form of a come to Jesus, get-real tough conversation.  Same if a drug addict relapsed.  But when morbidly obese people, who have been given a tremendous opportunity no less, make terrible decisions, "good" support comes in the form of telling them they will be okay and that everyone is human because doing what you are supposed to do is hard. What a world we live in!

Heyyyyyy guys... hope everyone is doing great in there weightloss journeys.   It's been a struggle since march 23 when my beloved band (tina) was taken from me.... god i miss that minks....  
I didn't realize how much she kept me from feeling hungry all the time.  I find my self grazing more and making some bad choices.
i've put back a few, but still fitting in my size 4 jeans.  Monday starts a new exercise program and im getting these few lbs off
On other news..... It looks like i will be moving to Madison, ms....  very nice town just north of Jackson.  Tim (the guy i have been dating for the past 8 month) has been promted to the corp office for Enetergy.  He's buying a house up there and has asked me to move in with him..... and i say...Why the hell not.  It's only 3.5 hours from my home now... so still close to family.
Miss you guy....  if anyone wants to email me.... christina2315dd@yahoo.com ....  i check that all the time.

So, this past Friday I let my boss know that I will be having my surgery on May 15th.  She never responded back.  So, her husband (the owner) came in and I told him (she had already talked to him).  He says, "ok, we'll make it work"  They're due to go to Argentina for vacation that same very day!!!!  lol  She wanted me to be in the office that week while they were gone.  Well, guess what!?  I've been planning this for almost 6 months (4months since I officially started) and I will not be changing my date for her to get her stinkin vacation.  I told him that I've been waiting for this and that is what it will be.  May 15th.  I could already see her reaction, calling her husband and complaining about the timing. 
Well, THAT's JUST TOO BAD!

Hello everyone....  What a ruff week it has been.  What started with a bug... Ended Thursday with my BEST friend leaving me.  Tina (my band)... is gone.  After 8 years 4 months and 13 days....  It was a great journey for sure.  
The slip was pretty bad.... i was less than 24 hours from a perforated stomach.  But i feel much better.  The pain i was in was the most unbearable pain i have ever felt..... and everyone who knows me here, know how much of a high tolerance i have for pain.
So, it's up to me now.... i must continue on my journey with only the knowledge i have gained over the years and pray that i can do it alone.  
But, even though i don't have my band anymore... i will still come here, because you all are my friends and i treasure your support.
xoxo
