You are shrinking! What a difference those 4 weeks have made, bet you can't wait for the next 4 Keep up the good work!

I have trouble dealing with anger as well. When I am most angry I feel compelled to move something...be it myself thru pacing in a circle or stomping away or really losing it and throwing, smashing, or kicking inanimate objects. I've also attempted to get rid of anger or resentment by eating, and LOTS of it. This makes me feel worse afterward, I mean..who am I getting back at?? What problem does this solve? Only hurting myself....

I realized a few years ago that I "eat" my feelings....loneliness, sadness, boredom, disappointment, anger, resentment....just swallow it down. I have been working on changing that, even more so now that my surgery date is approaching. I have been a journaling person off and on for a great part of my life and plan on doing that more in hopes it will be a healthier outlet for my feelings.

CE has some great suggestions! I hope you and I both can find happier and healthier ways to deal with our anger.

Good for you! I've gone to curves before and the people sure make the difference between just going through the moves and actually having fun while you're doing it. Keep up the good work!

Sounds like you have really turned things around and are moving forward instead of holding yourself back....way to go! Stay positive...and keep on trucking!
