You are quite welcome.

hell, failing is fun, I can eat whatever I want and bitch that the world ain't fair.
The world would be fair if I could eat a Krispy Kreme cream filled donut for dinner and have that be a balanced meal. Failure is always easy, that's why succeeding is so much more rewarding!

I have had trouble getting up lately, think I am fighting depression jag. I now that tomorrow, or soon, I will be back on track.
Read this article by Leigh Peele... she's a trainer/fitness-nutrition guru much like Steve (who also has very informative things to say). She use to be on this board but from the look of her website she is quite busy being successful and hasn't stopped by in quite some time. » Blog Archive » Symptoms of Fat Loss Pt 1. Feeling crappy might be just what you need! In all seriousness though, for the past few weeks, especially at night when I get tired, I've been unusually sad and a bit tempermental. If you've had problems with depression in the past, please make sure you are getting enough calories. There are studies out there (I should probably try to refind one of these before I boast information) that show being in too severe of a deficit for too long brings on an onslaught of emotional issues... and as someone who has had an ED and had a male friend with an ED (affects both sexes equally), not getting enough cals can really mess you up... not just metabolically.

This is why my diary is entitled the Best Version of Myself. I'm already a darn great gal. I have my faults and my nit picks, and far from perfection (just don't tell anyone that, okay?) but in my mind all I am lacking is a nice body to complement my intelligence, humor, etc Do this for yourself foremost. Do it to feel more confident in yourself. Hell you could weigh what you do now and be confident. But if this is the thing that irks you about yourself then change it... and change it to make yourself feel better. You control your own happiness.

Like you told me in the Weigh Yourself Everyday thread, just keep swimming. Whether you think you can or cannot, you are right (Henry Ford).
