This thread is for anyone that has been away from healthy eating, had a gain and is recommitting. We accept all forms of healthy eating here, whatever that means to you. We touch base daily for accountability and to encourage one another. This is a judgment free zone.
We all struggle to get the weight off and keep it off. Sometimes this is a challenge, but we never give up and that is the key. Regardless of our situation or where we are in reaching our goal, we count on talking to each other every day and are blessed to have one another as friends.
All are welcome here.

Good morning friends. Another early day, but I feel like the sleep I did get was pretty good. I'm not feeling wiped out like I was yesterday morning, so that's good, I suppose. Well, we survived wave 3 of the storms last night, which were actually not nearly as bad as they were predicting...Thank Goodness! Behind the storms we've had a cold front push in and the temps are cooler than normal. Actually through Saturday our high temps will not hit 70. I'm not going to complain about it though, as it looks like the rain is finally done - well, for now anyway. Jana - thinking of you. I'm hoping everybody has a great Wednesday & Happy Cinco de Mayo to all! I think I'll make us some nachos for dinner tonight to mark the day

Good morning.
Yesterday was another long day at VA with my Pop. His shoulder is definitely broken in 2 places. They are concerned with his osteoporosis and liver damage that the shoulder may not heal the way it is supposed to. They are going to keep a pretty close look at it and we will be going to the VA at least every week or 2 for x-rays. If it does not start to heal properly then he is looking at a partial shoulder replacement. He is in a lot of pain. So FAR he hasn't drank any alcohol. I am a little concerned about him going into withdrawal from not drinking. They did give me Narcan so if he does drink and take the pain pills and overdoses, I have that. It is a spray that goes in the nostril. Fingers crossed that does not happen.
My DS is coming to VA today and staying until Saturday so that I can try to get caught up at work.
Susie counseling is going well. R and I have been together 2 times and I go every couple of weeks by myself. If nothing else it helps to talk to someone who isn't involved with our situation and is not biased either way. He also gives me a different perspective and sometimes that helps a lot as well.
I am so far behind at work. Today I am doing my best to at least make some progress in catching up.

Hello again.
Jana - I can only imagine how difficult this whole thing with your father could potentially be. I'm glad your sister is coming to help out. It will be a bit easier having some back-up. Again, sending good thoughts for the best possible outcome. It will be good to have the Narcan on hand just in case.
Pretty quiet around here today - BTW, I'm absolutely not complaining about that. Lol.

Hi Everyone, I started to write last night but my phone needed charging and I never got back to posting. Jana, you have more than enough to carry this past two years between everything that has happened. I am glad that you are getting some time away for yourself to give you a mental health break. We had our club dinner tonight for the 1st time since last year. We had 6 and we could eat at one table. My non-partner is agreeing to do light duty stuff. It doesnt really help me that much because I need assistance with the educational files and she cant really help me with them. She should have been doing that all along. By the time she can come back I will have done just about all the work during this busy time. I beginning to write gibberish so will say goodnight.
