Thanks, Im hangin in there. Today actually turned out pretty positive. Sometimes I dont see the positive things and Im real good at beating myself up and not giving myself any credit. But I can actually see changes, as small as they may be, I notice some. Its cool too. Cravings are pretty good today. The only ones I really had were while I was lifting weights of all time.

Thanks everyone! Still struggling, not so much with cravings, just feeling blah, sooo hard to get up in the morning. Just woke up, skipped my morning routine to hop on the bus to head to the gym. A little lost in life, without job, family and my ohther bad friend the cigarette, I'm a little more lost. But will keep pluggin away, waitin for the miricle.

Hi Lance,
 
Yes I remember, you have come a long way and don't you forget that.  You are doing great!  Sometimes it takes the hardest times to push us into action and you know what? You are facing it full force.  You should be so proud of how strong you are. It truly is amazing.  Keep fighting.  You have so much to look forward to.  We are here whenever you need us.

I think I heard mood swings are part of this process. I dont know how long they last. I have been working out 3 times a week for about 3 hours each time. So that should help. Still dont know why I picked the hardest, scariest, lonlinest time in my life to do this. Its almost like it was a subconscious decision and I just did it! Recently I have learned a lot about God and I have prayed a lot. I did ask for help in this area, wow I think Im on to something here.
