Wow Chris, your friend sounds like a total package... I wish I had that description =( Maybe someday! ANyways, Don't worry soo much about your weight, you are doing a great job! Just hang in there! Have a great Wedensday!!! 

This is the friend who you said is so upset about not having a relationship that shes gotted down to like 115 pounds, right? And at 5'8 thats pretty thin... I'm sure shes a bright, wonderful girl, but maybe she should concider a relationship with a therapist for a while before she trys to find a man. Obviously she is having a very hard time with this, and just being able to talk it out with something who doesn't know her could really help. Just a though. Anyway, have a great Hump Day!!! 

Well, I *could* make a special trip to New York. ;-) I like the way you posted your gain without hesitation and think that the sooner we do this the easier it is to keep ourselves steady. Some of us cannot bear the idea of posting a gain and hold out for long periods of time only to find that they have gained even more. Have a great day! 

Chris, I am quite sure that this is just a normal fluxuation. You are doing fantastic. Keep up the great work and the great attitude! 

Don't be too hard on yourself ... just get right back to counting your calories kiddo ... you'll be fine!! Besides, you are very close to where you want to be ... so it is more difficult ... and we KNOW how much you LOVE exercise!!! LOL!!! We are all TOTAL packages ... if we could just learn to be kinder to ourselves and more accepting of what 'is' instead of so damn focused on what 'is not." It is so difficult. Happiness is not determined by who is in our life, how much we weigh, how 'beautiful' or 'fit' we are, what our career is, or how much money we make. LOL at Sarah's comment about a therapist ... hey if your friend needs one maybe I can do a little internet therapy ... I'm reasonably priced!!! LOL!! 

The secret to a happy relationship is to find a good person and then give them everything they want. If both people did this, happy destiny would be had by each. It may seem difficult to give someone else everything they want, but that's actually the easy part of the equation. Finding a good person is much harder these days. I'm sure your friend will do fine. On top of the other attributes you describe, she can write scripts. Always a plus.  

Lol.. Moose... it's so funny you say that because I told her she needs to start doing a gratitude list every day! Which of course I learned from you, and just the other day RJenkins was talking about it as well. It is such a great, easy way to focus on the POSITIVE aspect of our lives. No one's life is perfect... so let's focus on the good stuff! 

And Sarah, she actually is going to a therapist now. I think it's just very difficult for a 31 year old woman, no matter what she looks like, to be single when all of her friends are in relationships. If I were the last of our group to be single I'd probably feel the same way. 

Thats funny, because I have the oposite with my friends. I'm the only one whos married, and has kids... they all get to go out and have fun, and I get to hear about it the next morning. I guess the grass is always greener.... 

I know!!! I agree... it's always greener on the other side.  

You are such a great friend. Unfortunately she will have to find her own strengths and build her own happiness. Of course you can help in finding her men but she would have to believe in herself to make any relationship worthy. Like your weightloss we are all here for you, we help eachother out in many ways but only you can make your daily choices to get you closer to your goal, make sense? I def think you had a loss too, (unless you were REALLY dehydrated). I say a drop is a drop and if you correct your eating and drink your water now you'll drop it back down fast. (I saw yesterdays journal, sorry to hear about that- some ppl are so evil) Happy day Chris, thx for your comment on my journal too 

Phils are HOT!!! southpaw ....Good Luck 

you do sounds like a great friend- sometimes the nice girls finish last too right? too bad. she will fine the right one, one day:) you are doing great Chris- and hope the no spend sept is going good for you:) 

Being single is not bad at all Chris! For the most part I actually like it. I hope your friend finds what will make her happy. You are doing great without those credit cards Chris.
