I will go on a walk tomorrow during the storm .. I don't care .. I will wear my coat ...my scaft and mittens and hat .. I will just keep walking ...

and eating went very well today btw ..very well indeed!:party:
 
Well done nat! Isn't it great when we love our bodies? I have good days and bad days with mine, some days I look at me and I am like "hello superstar!" and some days I am like "omg i cannot go out with this body... i am gonna hide til it looks different!"

I am crossing my fingers for your thing on the 14th... I hope he doesn't turn out to be a frog (you know instead of a prince!).
love, Camy

Camy, I think he is gonna be my Prince. I have told him about one past relationship, because he keeps giving me compliments. And I have never gotten these compliments and someone being so honest ..u know ..

and he couldn't believe that Alex put me down so much...

Alex wouldn't call me pretty, beautiful, or lovely ... he said "Your ..well ... o k ..."

so this guy says he is the total opposite ..and I have talked on the phone with him ..and he seems very genuine ...

he is my age ...he seems nice... I think he just might be the one ...do you ever get that feeling .. normally I don't ..but I just have this feeling ...which I have never had before ...something inside me says I need to meet this guy and see him ... lol

well ttylater hun

Yes Heather, Thank goodness ... Spring is on its way!! Its total ice today, because its all melting .. if I go walking I will have to wear ice creepers, so I don't slip, because I was carrying my guinea pig to take him to the vet for teeth cutting ..and I almost slipped ... but I hung on to him ...

Hope your doing well hun!!!

It depends on what time of night it is .. I don't like to read before bed, because than I can't sleep ... because everything new keeps circulating in my brain and I keep thinking of the book and what the pages had on them ...lol and what it all meant ..

you know what I mean?

Well its happening the 14th of March ..so far .. two weeks ..you never know ..it might not happen .. I live in reality ..lost my hope a long time ago .. I am awful ..the last ..all the relationship I have had, have burned me bad ..so I have a hard time trusting what a man says, even when he says he wants a date with me ..usually I mess up with words ..to build a wall ..and than I lose a date with a great guy ..so ..bummer ...but I will keep you updated ..

he is very hot and I like him tons ... I am hoping this doesn't end badly ..or start badly ..

well fingers crossed ..... thats all I have ..

The date is awesome news - why so far in advance ? Just schedules? I hear you about the trust issues and such...Im so totally there and with ya...it is hard to get over bad relationships and to try to trust agian and open up...I was screwed pretty badly by both my girls fathres...this time around Ive been single for 4 years and still have no desire to move forward or even try it comes and goes...sometimes Im strong and powerful sometimes not...

Good for you for trying:):):)That is a great step and it is all about confidence...

For me I have a hard time believing anyboddy would want me...

Hun ... You are Worth and deserving of someone who will treat you like a queen!! I know you have in your head otherwise possibly. I understand. I got through intervals where I think the same thing. I was having a pitty party last night, saying the most horrible things about myself and yet my man, well kind of lmao, was telling me how beautiful and pretty I was.. but I kept thinking I was ugly .. I couldnt take him compliment and I started crying ..

We got burned ... someday you will move on and meet a wonderful person!!

It will happen and you are beautiful. Don't question ..you are a queen!!

Thanks Misty,
Glad to see you back!
I am on the up and up and hoping it lasts, but am human and we all have set backs ... I am going walking everyday this week, except maybe for Saturday ...but next week is supposed to be all sun ... they forecast into the next week, but we will see if the sun really comes .. I think it will and I am going to be walking everyday!!

Hey Natalie!! So much has happened since I last checked!! This man sounds like someone to keep around! I'm hugely cliched when it comes to this nonsense, but I swear that everyone on this planet can find the person who will treat them the way they want to be treated, and you should NEVER settle!!! I never thought it would happen to me - honestly thought I would probably end up divorced someday because I was with someone who didn't really make me 100% happy (or even 90% happy, really) but it HAPPENED. And I swear if it can work for me, there is no reason anyone else shouldn't hold out for the person who makes them happy! I love that he calls you beautiful because you are!! :) I'm crossing my fingers for you guys big time when your date comes around. Sounds like something magical. :) And don't downplay 'the feeling'!! I swear. . . .first started dating my fiance, probably 3 months in and we're going to the trash chute in my apartment building. I had once told an ex that it was kinda fun to listen to the trash fall all the way down (because I lived on the 20th floor at that time) and it was a source of endless teasing after that - like constant. Whenever I would do something dumb, he would bring that moment up again. So I'm putting the trash in the chute and the fiance is with me and I am about to close it and he goes "Wait. . . .it's so cool to listen to it fall down."

I swear to God I knew at that moment he was the one for me. Stupid moment, but I had 'the feeling' and now we're in the midst of planning a wedding. So don't knock that feeling!

Haha sorry for the winded reply! Hope you had a great day :)

You are so right!! My ex never got anything I said. He would make fun of me about thinking of spiritual things and what not. BUT Peter actually believes what I believe and he is totally backing me in my weight loss, but he does say he prefers me bigger, which is nice to know he doesn't mind ..that he actually likes me the way I am, but I already told him, because of health reasons I am losing the weight and it is a very important goal to me. So he is fine with that, but he cheered me on when he found out I had gained two pounds lmao!! I lost again however. .aaww I am such a stinker ..lmao ..

I am down to 277.6!! Can I hear a WHOOT WHOOT!! lol WHOOT WHOOT!!
back in the 270s and even lower than before .. I am trying really hard to focus on my eating ...lol

and Heather ..that was such a cute story! You have found the perfect guy for you!! My ex used to tease me about things, that Peter listens to and takes me seriously ... It feels so good to have someone on my side! lol
