ok.... here goes
« on: September 08, 2011, 10:51:59 AM »
 :'(  Ive been MIA because I had a MAJOR breakdown a couple weeks ago..  I fell off and though I am almost back to where I was, it has been so frickin challenging and emotionally draining.

I didnt want to say anything out of shame but I did actually write one of friends here on the board for some support. Im back on and have been for a over a week now, but I am feeling so much stress that I feel like numbing it all... I knew I was addicted but never realized just how awful sugar is.. I swear the mind of matter thingy is just as if you were a drug addict, dont be fooled to believe otherwise...

I know what I will read.. This is more of a confession because I feel the need to help me get past this last hump of guilt that I am feeling..

Feel better sharing it... Im so sorry for falling off..

Don't beat yourself up over it--it IS hard to be "perfect" every day.  Just yesterday I was wondering how I was going to get through as I have been craving watermelon (my favorite!!) and plums--I love those things and still can't wrap my head around the fact that fruit can be bad for me.

It's no big deal--confessions should be for murderers.   :P  You're a human being and that is all--not a programmed roboperson.  You'll be fine!

Thank you all.. I know that you can always get back on and I did right away, but knowing that I let my guard down over things that I have no control over is what did it.. I had an appt with my therapist and he cancelled on me the day I needed him..Well you can imagine what happened after that...

Im happy to say that one of my major issues is basically resolved.. My ex husband finally signed the stupid papers but not until I had to remove some of the things I was requesting for our daughter.. What a jerk.. So that is nearly a closed chapter.. It was also the hardest thing that I was going through..

Also, I have a commitment to myself but to F2S as well, so I really felt like I was cheating on my relationship with all of you and I just couldnt bare any more. I know it sounds silly, but I am a person with integrity and I felt that I compromised that.. Thank you all again..

Hello Alex! :)

Remember that this is a lifestyle.
It allows for faltering as long as we get right back on board afterword.

Faltering may only slightly delay "when" you arrive at your goal... And that's about it!
As long as faltering does not become a habit, you'll do just fine.
You WILL reach your goal!

We're all here with you, Alex! :) :) :)

Alex,
  We are here for you no matter what!  Falling off happens.  You get back up and you go back to what you were doing.  And you know, we all have done it at some point, and will probably do it again at some point!  But you've got to remember - we love you regardless! :-*

Life happens and you don't owe anyone an explanation. You're too good of a person to even think/do so! Big hugs to you, Alex. All will be well.

 Hey Alex it is what it is I think all of us will have this happen at sometime ,wether it is because we went somewhere unprepared and eat something we shouldn't . Or as you did with your emotions ,or like my vacation being with someone that just eats too D@@# much and make it easy to eat to much or things you should not eat .
  S@#@ happens you dont owe anyone a explanation just like Rena said . WE are here to listen to each other and get stuff off or chest .
Like Tony said this a lifestyle not a diet before when you fell off the "DIET" it would be weeks ,months or years before you get back on with FTS you mess up you just go right back and reverse the little damage that we do !!


Love ya !!!!
