I have spent the last three days, kinda feeling sorry for myself. Telling myself that nobody in my immediate circle wants me to get thin and be healthy. That my husband is trying to keep me fat. He is, but he doesn't have that power unless I give it to him. So, will I sit down and feel sorry for myself and pack on even more pounds, or will I take responsibility for my on life and my health and get up and keep moving forward! It would be easy to give in and go back to my old ways. It will be hard to avoid all the traps and pitfalls, but I have decided that I (not my husband) will dictate what happens in my life! I will avoid the traps and pitfalls, and if I happen to stumble or even fall from time to time, I WILL get back up and carry on with my journey to a new and healthy me!!!! I will use his remarks and digs to inspire me to greatness! He, in being my biggest stumbling block, will become my greatest ally in my journey! I won't let it become my excuse for being fat and unhappy!

WOW! That sure felt good to get all that out to myself and the people that do support me, my SP friends. Thanks for listening and supporting me.
