 👯 👯 👯 👯Happy!  Er're all here to dance with you on your first sugiversary.  You are one smart woman and quite an inspiration to so many.  I really understand your monkey because mine went to the same school.  🐒🐒. I swear they all converse here on OH when we go to bed at night!

I love that you accept yourself and don't judge yourself.  That's a lot of recovery for both of us.  It took me close to 18 months to get to goal.  I finally realized that it was the getting there that matters, not the time it took.   Here's to the next five years on this journey together.  Cheers and big kudos to you!

Yes, my head knows it's about persistence, not speed.  And that it's all about long-term clean eating, not just losing weight.  As someone who has relapsed several times into sustained periods of compulsive eating - sometimes spectacularly - I know I have to be constantly vigilant.  Thank you so much for your encouragement and support.

Thank you.  I've lost from the top down, so I'm quite thin in my neck and face, and still chunky below the waist.  Oh well!!  At least I'm overall much smaller!!

I feel like a one-note samba sometimes - I just have to keep telling myself the same things over and over!

Happy surgiversary!! and happy 100+ pound weight loss!!!!!

I relate to you so much. Since we both work/live in the pragmatic side of our brain, how odd that our food stuff lives in the emotional side! I see your "monkey" references and I so get it! you'll get to goal. You know the path, we'll just keep going together! :) I'm over here cheering you on! Go happy! Go happy!
