My darlin'

I can't tell you how much your faith and support means to me. Many times I have almost stopped posting, and you have drawn be back. Thank you, thank you. I'm good tonight. I talked to dh and he's comfortable, which means much to me.

You are a treasure! I just want you to know how much I appreciate you and "everyone" who contributes to this board! I love you all very much!

Wow, what a message to come to this morning.Made me cry and also put a huge smile on my face.

I think each woman on this board is so special.When one is away or doesn't post for awhile there truly is a void.We may forget to post a "where our you "message but we do feel the absence.I love to read a post where someone has had a great workout or conquered a food issue.But this board is about so much more than that to me.It's about a place to come to when things aren't going well and you need to feel the caring of others.It's a place you can vent to when things tick you off.It's a place to come to when you are filled with happiness and want to share it with your friends.Men are wonderful but only women could form the bond we have on this board.It is unique and I feel so lucky to be a part of it.

I always wonder when someone doesn't post for awhile or goes away completely what's up.Maybe they just got too busy or their lives just moved in another direction.But a part of me worries did they feel they weren't working out enough to post, or where they in an emotional slump and afraid of being a downer on the board.Those reasons worry me because I don't want for anyone to ever feel that pressure.I would hope they know this board is about so many things, the most important being that we really do care about each other.

Thank you so much for this post, Shar.Just can't tell you what it meant to me.And to read you are "good tonight" meant the most.

Love you

Pattycakes

What a sweet post, Shar! I can relate to not wanting to post - I don't have the time mainly & then I feel out of place being the only single woman on this board (like "what do I have to contribute" kind of thing going on in my brain). I also don't work out alot as some on this board do & the list could go on & on.

I hope you know that I REALLY miss your posts when you don't post, though! You have insight, motivation, sweetness & just great posts for us that I enjoy reading. So don't leave us ever!

Hope you feel better soon!

Hugs,

Kat

This post is directed to everyone here. I feel the same about not eatting well or exercising and not posting. Silly I know but when I get here I just can not lie and say I ran 3 miles today.........it just aint so. This place makes me think, wish and try again to do better for me. I guess its been a year I have been around and I miss it when I skip a day. I know by stopping in it puts me back into the correct, healthy state of mind. Now I can shamefully say I have not lost any weight and kept if off but I have not given up either and that my friends is because of all the wonderful support, ideas, and strength one feels when they visit here. God bless everyone of you and thanks for your continued help.

Kat...you ALWAYS have something to contribute! Whether your single or not makes NOT the slightest difference! And it's not like you don't know what we're talking about and can't contribute. Don't you dare say you have nothing to contribute!

Kat, you are a gem. Your posts are always so positive and refreshing. You are a wonderful mother and I'm awed by all that you accomplish. I don't think being single should even enter into it! We love you for who you are, not whether you have a s/o!!
