M.I. A.

That's me! I haven't felt like blogging as of late, but I still continue to read you all's blogs! I've just been busy with life and trying to sort things out. I'm not nearly as depressed as I was after my father's death. And I have to be honest, I didn't feel like I received a lot of support from my blog, so I quit blogging for a while. I've had to remind myself that I do not blog for you all (I love you, though!), I blog for myself. So whether some people choose to support me or not, this is my therapy and I'm going to try and get back into a routine with writing.

Anyhow, the most important issue at hand is my weight. Yep, I'm at about 263lbs and not feeling good. Actually, I'm feeling like I was 297lbs again, so it's time to get serious. I'm going to take each day as it comes, and pray I can make it through without bingeing.

Glad you're back! Yeah you definitely have to just blog for you and then if you receive support along the way that's great! Just make one good choice at a time and keep your goals in mind.

Glad to see you back. Just remember you get as good as you give in the blogging community, so if you're not commenting for others (I have no idea if you do or not!), then you won't receive the support you want. But if you do comment and show others support, eventually you will!

Welcome back and I hope things go well for you in your journey.

I'd also like to ask you if you'd post about my doctoral dissertation study. While it's hard losing weight on your own, it's not necessarily easier with a spouse or partner. Sometimes partners/spouses undermine weight loss through acts like complaining about healthier food, gifting high-caloric foods, or even through abusive language/acts. I'm creating an anonymous, online survey to assess for partner undermining and to learn more from those who experience it.

To be eligible to take the survey, participants need to have experienced this in their current relationship (of at least the past 2 years), and have been participating in a weight loss program for the past 5 consecutive weeks. For more info, see http://tinyurl.com/Clark-Study
