WOW. I started searching for my journal on page 15 and keep searching..... but I could not find it!
Imagine my surprise to see that my old buddies have kept my journal alive & kicking!
I really do miss the group we had.....we really were able to motivate each other...and share successes, and forgive a slip up here and there.
So much has happened in my life since I was here, I am soon to be divorced (after 33 years of marriage) a major shock but I am getting through it day by day. My weight.....up and down. I am right under 200 pounds right now...but food is not too interesting....just give me my wine !
I am still raising my grandson who is 9. We got him when he was 3......I honestly don't know what I would do without him right now!

I really need some friends to stroll the beach with me.........is anyone still out there????

Suzzi, OMG, I have been looking for you for a long time, came here to ask where you are...now I know.

You have my sympathy, divorce is a tough one, a roller coaster even if you don't mind the actual fact of it...So hang in there.

I am up in weight and really need some discipline and will be looking to lean on my friends- and have them lean on me...

So welcome back Suzzi. Keep in touch.

I am so HAPPY to see a familiar face here Judy !!!!! I can not even begin to tell you how low I feel.
I definitely need support.......i will be here if you will be here too??????
I am sitting here CRYING because someone is out there !!!!
Remember we talked about all being in the same leaky boat???? I am desperately looking for a life preserver....and you have thrown one out to me.........I rteally am hanging on for dear life.

Hi, Suzzi!!! Welcome back with lots of hugs ((((( )))))

So sorry to hear about your divorce. How painful that must be. Hang onto your little guy - he's what it's all about right now and he needs a grandma who is healthy and energetic!! Bless you for raising him.

Suzzi...welcome back to the beach! I understand the quandry about is it bad or good? I'm back on the beach after being away for 8 years. Looks like you already have some friends here Hope you can stay and cheer the rest of us on too!

[joesuzzi]

Hi Chris & Kristy too ! Lots of ups and downs.....Lots of tears but slowly there is laughter ebbing back in, and I know that "this too shall pass" (I keep telling myself that !)
Chris....you must have been posting at the exact same time as I did....cuz I swear your post was not there when I replied to Judy! So good to know that there are friends out there....and new ones to make too!
I am not fully on the beach yet......I have to get my kitchen finished first......but it is amazing how much of the beach I carry with me every day. This time I need to make it all stick! Good luck to ALL of us !!

SUZZI!!!

Thought about you and "Our 1/9" group as I do every year! Are you back? People (like MOI!) drop in from time to time; but there is no staying power. I miss all of you! I loved the support our group offered in more ways than one!

Liebly!

Suzzy, I am HERE for you. I need you like you need me, or even more. I am having a TOUGH time getting over the need to self destruct w food.

Let's get going again, and check in every day! I know it has always helped me.

OMG!!!! MOM! you are back! You made my day! I am sorry about your divorce, but I know you are a strong woman and my inspiration when I came to the beach in 2009!!!!
I've been struggling getting back fully into the beach mode, hopefully we can support each other like in the good old times and succeed again! and keep it off forever!

Suzzi, I started reading your diary at the beginning - you're such an inspiration. I just restarted SB a week ago today. I did really well in 2007 but fell off the wagon and hit my head hard cuz I've tried to restart SB many a times but couldn't get past day two or three so I'm hopeful that I've made it this far

Life is good at throwing us one curve ball or another so to speak. I hope to see you back here and we can all support each other in the right direction. Take care!
