This one is for Melanie.....Thanks for all the kind words and the cyber hug. You made me tear up just reading. I think I do need to be nicer to myself. I'm my own worst enemy.

Here's my list of accomplshments this past year:

1. Lost approximately 35 pounds
2. Walked a half-marathon
3. Achieved many goals at work (added staff and increased revenue)
4. Held it together with a new difficult boss
5. Moved to a nicer house, closer to work
6. Can buy most of my clothes in a normal size store
7. Decreased my debt by about $4,000
8. I don't come home from work and have to take a nap everyday
9. There is usually a spring in my step
10. I'm getting rid of some of my commitments...(i.e. town job, church committee)
11. Making new friends and reconnecting with others

Okay i need to get something for supper. I'm not really hungry but I've only ate about 700 calories today. May just fix a bowl of cereal. It's getting late and I don't really want anything anyway.
