Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 Valeri, Don’t feel like you have to apologize for not posting very much. I think everyone understands how busy everyone’s life can be. I too really enjoy reading all the postings. I joined the group fairly early and when it was small it was easy to keep up with everyone. We have gotten so large that now it is more challenging. I think though that the more the merrier. We all need each other and it is fun to share in each others success and frustrations. J Keep on losing and don’t think you are gaining when you are on program. Believe in yourself!! You can do it, you have already shown you can!! in CO -----Original Message----- From: Valerigb2@...

I read of your news and wanted to let you both know that I thought of you. I also want to say thanks for all the encouragement that this group has to offer. Even though it wasn't directly for me, it helps. I am not having a problem sticking to the plan. That I do easily, what is hard for me is to reach out to others, which I try to do, but often fail. I was thinking about quietly unsubscribing from the group, but realized that I do need the encouragement it offers. I also need to encourage others. I have had so much going on in my life lately that I find it hard to take the time to read and answer messages on any groups I am in. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to all. I missed my regular meeting this week, but I am going to try to make it this evening. I may have to change my days or something. I am really curious if I have lost much. Every week I go to weigh in I am convinced that I have gained, but I haven't yet. I wonder why I feel that way. I am doing the program. Have a great weekend everyone! ~Valeri 349/325.2/148 OP since 8-21-01 ~*~ To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: wwliterside-unsubscribe Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to the Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 Valeri, We all underestimate our importance in this world. I would miss your posts if you were to quietly unsubscribe to this group. You may not post often but your voice is one I look for and I enjoy reading your posts, you always have an upbeat attitude. I am glad to hear that you have gained something from my posts because I have been sitting here worried that because I haven't really been talking totally about weight loss if people are sick of my posting. The way I see it is we all need each other to encourage and support to get through life's daily challenges without doing what is second nature to me and that is turning to food in order to tune out my feelings or fears weather they be good bad or whatever. So I am very glad to read your posts. If I hadn't been able to turn to the computer during the last 2 months my weight would have gone sky high because without a doubt I would have been binging to control my feelings and I am proud to say I can't remember when I binged last.HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!! zephyr Congrats & Thank you Hi Everyone, Just a note to say congrats to Zephyr and .
