Hi everybody!
june is here....summer has started and so did themonthly challenge.I still feel weak round mid day but newly addicted to coffee i manage to raise my blood pressure.I came from work some hour ago-dead tired- but i m so determined to write to u today.despite the craving for food time-which is plenty:)and the weakness and missing sugar addiction thing , i feel pretty goood these days.Self Respect is the magic word now.It used to drive me craisy not to be able to go on a diet, and to be the last one to stop eating in any family gathering-i am easily noticed at weddings:)Now i feel liberated in some kinda way .No more- i Cant ,i can and i will -inshaaAllah-and this feeling in itself the determination , the stoppage of the cycle the breaking free is all that matters.Instead of hating the diet ,now i can order salad round friends eating burger(a big i cant thing of the past).I m back to my old hobbies cause i need to run from the cravings so i m back to water colours and i feel i ve invited the rainbow inside my own home.Life is so beautiful when we dare do the things we want to do.Knowing that each and every one of you goes through what i go through each morning simply makes a difference.Some day whatever time it takes we are going to make it,and that keeps me going...
Have a great day!

Have you tried ordering a burger without the bun. I do it all of the time, and most burgers are great with just the toppings (guacamole and cheese is my favorite). I've had a couple of people ask why, and I just tell them that I don't handle wheat products well. Even the fast food restaurants will give the burger to you on a plate instead of a bun and that way there's no guilt about throwing food away. Congratulations on your determination. You're right. We will make it. (NT) -- Katie, 14:18:49 06/03/02 Mon

  - Giving your pooch a doggie "dessert" of your burger bun -- what a great & cute idea! (NT) -- Kel, 04:50:15 06/05/02 Wed
