BahamaMama13's blog
Thank You Bunny and Others!

One week ago I was attacked by somebody on the blogs and felt horrible. I decided not to blog anymore. I have spent the week thinking about this. I have had many nice people email me and talk to me about what happened. I woke up this morning to an email with a link to a blog that Bunny posted about me leaving. I felt so great to read that blog and feel how kind everybody is on these boards. I understand that there has to be at least one bad apple in the group and I hope that bad apple just leaves me and my blog alone. I miss blogging. Why should I let somebody control my feelings and actions? I am in charge of my life and I will not stop blogging about my journey because one person doesn't like me (or my hubby I guess).

I had a great week in regards to loss...I am down 7.5 pounds now in spite of fighting a bad cold and barely being able to drag myself to work or do anything else. My pants don't fit. My shirts don't fit. My body looks and feels different. It feels nice to be seeing and feeling progress but I look like a frumpy clown wearing clothes that are way too big. I think this weekend I will need to start looking for new work clothes.

Thank you again EVERYBODY for your support and kind words. You mean the world to me. You really do. Thank you so much.

Have a great Friday!

Awesome weight loss! I have had a bad cold and cough all week, and it is really dragging me down! Every day I hope to feel better, but not yet. I'm so glad you didn't let one person run you off. I have found this blog to be very open and accepting, and I am GLAD YOU ARE BACK! Hope you have a terrific weekend!

Welcome back, it really is a terrific place to be. It seems, like you said there is always one bad apple and what she did was totally uncalled for. Keep the good work going on your weightloss and congrats. on the great week.

Nice to have you back! Coming from a girl that used to work in retail, ask a sales associate for help. One of my favorite parts of my old job in retail sales was helping someone during the weight loss transition. Think of clothes that will adjust to your body as it changes. Wrap dresses, knit skirts, rouched tops etc, will stay in your wardrobe longer. Have fun shopping

I am new to NS and I like your post! It is encouraging to me that you are losing. I have not lost in three weeks and was having a pity party yesterday. But it helps to read other people's successes as well as struggles. Thanks for being here!

I am so happy you've returned - I was totally bummed (Does anyone really say that anymore?) when you left!

Love the way you put your Big Girl Panties on and jumped back into the NS blogsphere! Terrific...

You are in charge of your life and I'm so glad you didn't let one debbie downer get to you. We all want to be able to share and not be judged.

P.S. Bunny is a good friend
