Won't be at support group tonight

I am sorry you feel bad. I hope you feel better soon! Julie

Count me out too...........I'm like you, I don't feel like being social. I have been sick and have had a bad headache for two days straight, plus I need to stop eating out or I'm never going to reach goal. I hate my body, my bad habits and probably just about everything else right now . Pooh, I wish I could blame it on Aunt Flo, but can't,lol. OK, so maybe it's a menopausal thing, hormones out of wack.......sounds like a good excuse to me.........where's my box cutter? Mary

Mary...thank you for the birthday wishes and the e-card you sent me. You are so sweet! QUIT BEING SO HARD ON YOURSELF!!!! This is all going to work out fine in the end...focus on the process and the everyday battles rather than worrying about the war! WE WILL WIN! You are doing great...don't sell yourself short! Call me anytime you need an ear, a shoulder or a kick in the butt! Love ya! Melanie

Thanks everyone for the concern. Nothing major. I just need some time to re-organize my head. Maybe we should make some suggestions to Dr. Bour for speakers. Maybe some "beauty" consultants who can teach us how to dress our new bodies, fix our thinning hair and maybe some skin care? My skin has gotten awful. Just an idea. Maybe even some sort of "dating guru" for the single people. Teach those who are back in the "scene" how to get back in and not be afraid, or on the other hand, too aggressive. Anyway, hope you guys have fun tonight. Kathy

Hey Kathy ... Missed you tonight. Lacey spoke about some of the changes they will be making to the support groups, about the Walk From Obesity on September 15 (more details to follow), and a possible fashion/makeover deal with Millie Lewis (an 8-week program to be held twice a year), and our new psychologist, who will be on board in about a month. Also, she's organizing a clothing exchange in the next few weeks, so she wants everyone to do their closet cleaning ASAP. Seems like she's working hard to liven things up for us all. She was asking for suggestions, so e-mail her your ideas ... I know she'd appreciate them! Love ya, Dawn
