In fact (from my experience)its a friendship that will last only about 10 seconds, the time it takes to eat it. Not long after that, Dove and a few of his buddies will actually feel more like enemies as they sit in your stomach and make you feel sick. Running, dancing, writing, scrapbooking are your true friends, they make you feel good long after.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774387387962611380.post-59887848504434668682010-10-24T16:05:56.668-07:002010-10-24T16:05:56.668-07:00Great post!

But when I would think logically about it, realistically..was a bar of chocolate going to ACTUALLY make my transition any easier? No... if it would, therapists would prescribe chocolate! :)Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04679451366109029829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774387387962611380.post-89560089790187674102010-10-20T08:09:16.983-07:002010-10-20T08:09:16.983-07:00I was going to suggest giving the chocolate away t...I was going to suggest giving the chocolate away to someone (I hate throwing food) so they'll enjoy it and you don't have to worry about it anymore :)<br /><br />Transitions are tough but you can do it!

Abstract thinking like I'll reinvent myself have never worked for anyone. Take prepared meals to work, have low calorie, high volume foods available to you, plan ahead and stick to your plan.

It is very hard. I am stuck in a rut of thinking tomorrow I will start and never actually starting. I am starting a blog of my own to try to keep myself on track.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13856892451584594696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774387387962611380.post-71712428562357385992010-10-18T11:15:35.735-07:002010-10-18T11:15:35.735-07:00Great post -- you are able to deal with being lone...Great post -- you are able to deal with being lonely, fear and anxiety. You just have to know what is is that is really causing the emotion. So if you feel lonely -- how can you connect with someone else? if you have anxiety -- what is it really about? What is a plan that you can create to minimize it.<br /><br />You have the power to reinvent yourself at any moment -- and I know you can do it.Jenn Barley | The KickStart Coachhttp://blog.jenniferbarley.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774387387962611380.post-53524844398352793712010-10-18T04:47:38.440-07:002010-10-18T04:47:38.440-07:00Right now, you need a real friend - a human friend...Right now, you need a real friend - a human friend. I traveled enough for long periods of time in CorporateLand to know it's a minefield for anyone trying to lose or maintain weight. I know you must be swamped with the new job, but would now be a time to join a gym, join Weight Watchers or SOMETHING??? You wouldn't even have to continue WW after getting your feet under you, but at least now it would be some "real" accountability. If you are anywhere near East TN, I'll come be your friend. Well, I AM your friend, but I'll do it in person! (Except that right now I'm in Alexandria, VA for another week - anywhere near here??)<br /><br />I so hear your desperation - throw the chocolate away.....NOW!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09408463925646609263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774387387962611380.post-46409915371205784092010-10-17T08:06:12.671-07:002010-10-17T08:06:12.671-07:00You're right.

Just toss them now! Tomorrow, you will be glad you did. I have been there and done that, not with Dove candy, but with many other things. Just wanted to finish what I had and start tomorrow. Too many tomorrows led to a lot of gain. You can do this my friend:)Karenhttp://www.waistingtimeblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
