Just a thank you...

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking and reading posts here for the last few days. I got sleeved on 2/5 and while so far it's been ok (with a few typical hiccups...pun intended) it's just been overall scary. I've gone from angry at myself to proud to happy to overly excited to depressed to terrified. I know part of it is hormonal from dropping weight so quickly.

But reading everyone's stories and seeing how positive, accomodating, and accepting everyone is...I feel like I've found a new home. When people in the real world don't understand, I feel I can come here and even just lurk and feel better.

I'm still laying on my couch 99% of the day and hanging out on the boards here and I feel that does more for me than any Protein Shake could. So, thanks, people, for just being awesome.

Now I have to go cry again because that's what I do, but at least it's those, "I have a place and people" tears.

❤ Chrissy

Awe...I completely understand how you feel right now. Week one was "hell" week for me, but you will be up and at it before you know it. This will be just a faded memory, over shadowed by all the awesome successes you are about to venture into. Sip, sip, sip...one day at a time...one step at a time. Keep us posted!

Aww, welcome! I know I spend way more time here than I ever thought I would, too. It's nice to have a place where everyone "gets it". Happy healing!!
