Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 I have been very preoccupied lately and have not been posting but I usually read. I just want all of you to know that this now 66 year old woman has reached one pound from onderful. I go down very slowly now and I have been frustrated. My husband is teasing me for using that word too much. But I am not gaining and I am relaxing much more. If I nibble on a cherry tomato, I don't get so upset. I am an all or nothing person when it comes to dieting and I usually end up with nothing. This time around, I can't overeat so I feel safe to not be so hard on myself if I nibble a tomato or a carrot or even a bite of cheese. I still don't touch my addiction of sweets. Today, I even ate a small peach and I was fine. I try very hard not to nibble and usually I make it but not always. I have decided that doctors do not really know what diet we should be following on this program. Every doctor has a different idea so we must find out what is a livable way for each of us. I follow the basic rules of eating at once and drinking an hour later for as long as I can. That is usually 3-5 hours depending on how occupied I am. In any case, I am happy to be on here again and I hope everyone is doing OK. How is Francisco doing with the marathon and how is Robynn doing and and Donna? I guess I miss you all.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 LilkaGlad to hear from you, sounds like you doing great. I'm so happy you are just 1 pound from onederland. My life is hard with all I'm going through (you'll read on other post), but I really enjoy this journey. I am holding my 138 and very happy. I just came back from a nice vacation in Colorado, so I haven't been posting for sometime up until this week. Life is hard and very full, but it will not make me turn to food. I turn to friends and family and when they don't help the stress I turn to the psychologist and this has really keep me happy and not messing up my journey. I love hearing from you. Take care.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Hi there Lilka- I was wondering where you went. I am glad to hear you doing so well. Almost to ONEderland? Good for you. I have always been right behind you both in spirit and our journey. Keep up the great job. And again it is great to know you are still out there.
