WHOA Potnoodle...Ok this is so weird because totally I meant M.I.A. like Missing in Action...BUT surprisingly I am mia. I have always wanted to talk to someone else who is...but I was like always afraid to admit it openly, actually before now, only my closest friend knows. I have managed to suppress it now for about 7 months...well sort of. I did some research about it when it got a little out of control last May, and I found out that all my life I have been doing it in various ways so sometimes even though I thought I stopped I never did really.

I think you will understand me when i will say I am finding it hard to tell you I am happy you are able to suppress it. I mean it is the best for you healthwise, but from the perspective of someone who is..I guess we are a little in denial about it sometimes and there is like a combination of shame and pride with it, even though we know about the health risks. And like since I am in the suppression mode right now also...it is better to feel nothing at all about suppressing it (like to just feel normal) than to feel happy about it.

Happy you found me Its so difficult to talk about mia to someone who is not. Especially when you are not typical of what they think it is. Many do not realize it is much more of a psychological thing even if there is no action that they can see. I don't know if we'll be talking about it alot since we are both in suppression mode, so no worries if you do not feel like replying LOL

Have a good weekend potnoodle you made my day today!!

CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss by the way You are so not getting old!! LOL I think its just that you found a MUCH much better way to reach your goals than mia
