AWWW fanks you guys but dont be too proud of me today .
 
Had an awful night , plenty of attacks . I wish i damn well knew why . Got up a complete mess today infact nearly lost it . My throat is awful only easing for a little bit at a time , im fuzzing all over .
 
I just about went to shops to get stuff for dinner , cooked it and done ironing . I actually cried today , MIL caught me and hugged me bless her . Going to miss her when she goes home next week .
 
The only thing i actually think is worrying me is my work . My mum works so hard and has been covering for me since January . She looked pale and tired the last time i saw her . I miss the money and also i paid my parents for a very expensive TV out of my wages every week . Im so behind .
 
Well i phoned today and officially quit , it was a massive thing for me to do but i want her to try and find someone else to help her .
As for the weight havnt been dieting just not eating good , please dont tell me off i do try but its so very hard having such a tight throat most of the time .
ooo all upset now have to go for abit .
 
Hope everyone is having a fantastic day take care CD x

WOW CD sounds like you are making huge steps over there, loosing weight, taking the kids out, well done! Those kids play areas can make anyone feel anxious, sounds like you had super fun time. Congrats.

All I can say is you're amazing.  It seems that no matter how many lemons come your way you're able to make lemonade out of them. 
 
You should be so proud of all of your accomplishments and this past week you've had soo many!!  Wow...
 
I am so grateful to have you here to share your stories and inspire and support me (and the rest of us)
 
Way to go girl!

Hiya CD!
 
I am grinning for you as we speak! I mean, I don't know if you realize how big what you just wrote is! Despite feeling funny you went to a busy indoor market and a kid's area to play! That is a huge accomplishment in my book! Congratulations. You are truely and inspiration. Glad you are proud! Am proud of you too! Thank you for sharing! You go girl!

Sniff    *grabs and hugs Miki* and Koneko thanks for the encouragement .  lost another 2lbs thats 9lbs this week but am picking more today .
 
Okies here i go and im not in whinge mode lol . Last night was much better in the night still woke up a zillion times ( i do that anyway) was anxious but didnt have majour attacks TWIT-A-WOOOOO !!
 
Today got up all fuzzy wuzzy and was really quite anxious , mind you i knew i had a taxi ride and the kids indoor area and indoor market to go to that didnt help . But had promised MIL and kids that they could go .
In the market i was oooo funny , it was so busy . After we had a burger outside in the sunshine , that made me feel so much better .
Kids play area was manic but wasnt as bad as the last time i went . I even went with my youngest daughter to the pirate area , where you have to crawl through *shivers* just to go shooting !! Hey i wasnt a bad shot , only missed two targets out of twenty . Soaked lots of kids watching as well hehehehehehehehe . They loved it , and for the first time in ages i felt PROUD .

No worries, CD!
 
We all know you can get through it!

I really think you are amazing. In spite of all the panic attacks and pain you get you still pull through by bearing that smile. I think that is really big because you still accomplish all the things you need to get done. I've learned that even though we seem to still be anxious and have awful feelings the fact that we put up with it is so courageous. I think I read in some quote here that courage comes from doing things while knowing our fear... and I think it's true.. there's a big difference with people doing 'courageous' acts from ignorance versus us people with the knowledge of scary things. Our weight is much more heavier yet we lift it up the same. I hope you know how cool and inspiring you are, Cornish Dee!

cornish-dee,
 
I'm so glad to hear that you are staying positive. Even though you had a bad day, it is great that you are able to keep your head up and keep yourself busy. Is there anything we can do for you?
