Talking to myself

Dec 29, 2017 17:50

Surprise...I am still alive!

I have no clue if anyone even checks this any longer, but I just wanted to let anyone who does know that I am still alive. I'm not sure how, but I am.

I'm worse off than I have ever been, but I am taking control and 2018 WILL be my year! I am sick of just hanging out here on the side of the cliff, slipping ( Read more... )

I'm so relieved! Thanks for posting an update. anonymous January 1 2018, 01:40:41 UTC

Joely, I am so glad that you took a moment to post an update and I wish you the best in 2018.

Hope the job is going reasonably well.

Would you care to share your strategy with us? Could be Nutrisystem, or maybe Paleo?

Thank you!

I'm back to carb cycling, which seems to work the best for me. I'm already down about 30 pounds and can't wait to weigh in tomorrow to see if I'm down more.

I swear to you, I was just thinking about you the other day, and wondering how you were! :) I'm glad to see you post. I seldom use LJ these days, even though I should. It's just that I end up talking to myself here. I'm much more active on Facebook, I don't know if you would like to friend up there. I believe our goals are quite similar.

I hope you will be more active here! I would love to be able to support your goals.

Thank you Shirley, I appreciate it. I don't know if I'll post regularly, but I'll try to update every now and then. If I do get back to blogging I'll probably move off this format, but let you know.

I am very thankful for all your support over the years.

I sent you a message, it's so nice to "see" you! :)

So glad you posted! anonymous January 11 2018, 18:37:08 UTC

Hi, I have "known" you since the Nutrisystem message board days, have followed your story, and have been rooting for you all these years. I'm so glad you are still out there though I was hoping to hear you were feeling better. Here's hoping that 2018 is your year!!!!

Thank you Jill! I spent a long time getting myself back together and I truly feel this is the time I'm going to finally nail my goals and keep them off. The keeping them off has always been my issue, but this time around I feel really good that I'm making changes that will keep for a long time.

Joely, I've been hoping to learn how you have been doing. There must be something positive to report in addition to the ups and downs. Your fan base is curious and hopeful.

Re: Please stop teasing us! seeking_joely January 21 2018, 23:28:46 UTC

Well, I'm down about 30 pounds since getting back on track and I am feeling a lot better, so I can't wait to see how continuing to lose continues to improve how I feel.

I can't imagine the challenge that you're facing, but I sincerely hope you're able to keep putting one foot in front of the other and make this a year of change for you, one step at a time. All the best to you.

Thank you so much, the one thing about me that is a positive is I have never given up, no matter how far off course I've gone. I will keep fighting until I get where I want to be.
