Joining January Challenge

You have asked for help with losing weight, not loosing weight.

Don't be irritating and read the FAQ.

Well, it's Jan 2 and here come the resolutions again. I've lurked here for
years, rarely posted, not at all in the last few years. Did LC fairly
faithfully, was successful for a while - note the WAS. I have totally
gone
off the LC wagon and need to get back on. It's been so long since I've
truly
done low carb that I'm resetting my "since" stat to this year.

I have to get healthy! Part of this is loosing weight. I had a back injury
from a car accident about 16 months ago and have totally stopped moving
due
to pain. I MUST add exercise back into my life. I have to regain some
flexibility even with the back problems. My husband is disabled, I need to
be able to take care of him as well as myself.

I have asked for spiritual help with loosing weight and not craving chips,
Cheetos, and other carby, salty, snacks. Well I got it - just not how I
expected it. I have developed an allergy to the cheese/dairy type
flavoring
on things like Cheetos, flavored chips, etc. I develop a very painful skin
reaction. Guess I haven't been listening to the gentle hints so my
attention
has been grabbed with something stronger.

They say if you publish your goals, you're more likely to meet them. So
here
goes.

Initial goals:
5 pounds per month weight loss
Exercise daily - on a daily basis will do one of the following: aerobic,
weight, or flexibility (pilates/yoga/stretching)

So, I am participating in the challenge and am coding my sig line to take
advantage of the robo challenge automatic stat capture.

then you should already know that JC never says anything to help
others. I'll give him 1/4 pt for recommending the faqs. but otherwise
he is just here to pick on people. I suggest KF'ing right away. I'm at
work using google groups so his posts show up o/w his is invisible to
me unless someone quotes him. (never fails that someone does)
good wishes for your success.

If you would live by your own words, the healing would begin.

That brings us back to the "ethical" question.

"The postman attacks. You now have a scroll of mail."

JC's been KF for ages, just not worth the attention he gets.

But it IS attention - can't be all bad.

more by the end of the month. 🙂

Now JC, start the year off with a slightly more charitable outlook. the
whole "loosing" - "losing" mixups really get on my [censored] too, but take it
in stride, man!

Ok, it skips people that are too close to goal ;-) Keep sending in
suggestions and comments, it can only get better.

I also fixed the url to be aSDlc not aDSlc ;-)

Sure it can. It is *negative* attention and it is not what someone
wants. I know from experience because I did the same thing in this
very newsgroup regarding a few ppl here and because I was so angry and
bitter about a fellow I had met and had a private relationship with
from this newsgroup. The relationship was not working out as I hoped
it might and I took my anger out on everyone.....most especially him
but also a few ppl here too. I am still disappointed the relationship
did not work out but I have learned several lessons from it I can take
through to my next one.

I still feel horrible about what I did (especially when it comes to
the guy involved) because everyone has called me names and
killfiles me and no one wants to get to know who I really am because
I have shown myself to be someone who I am not in person.

People do not want to bother with people who do not conduct themselves
in a good way in all aspects of thier life and I did that. It was my
biggest mistake ever and I am paying for it now. I've apologized to
the guy in question but he chooses to believe that I am not sincere in
my apologies and I am sorry for what I have done in the past here
because everyone thinks I am a crackpot now and I do not feel very
comfortable here very much anymore and feel like I must always be on
the defensive. I only stay here because I need support in order to
get to my normal weight and I want to *proove* to everyone I can do it
eventually.

Negative attention is not a good thing.
