obsidyan, obsidyan, where are you?

Hey, wonder if you could whisper to my scales or even shout to them?  It seemed to work for your jeans. 

don't go hybernating now!  We love you and your humorous way of saying things.

love you...((((((((((((((((((HUG)))))))))))))) xxxoooxxxoooxxxooo

I'll second that!!!!!! 

hey there.. i'm here.. i've been gone all day though.. hubby needed to get some stuff at the computer store then he took me to my favorite shop.. a second hand book store.. haha.. then we went to a st. patricks day dinner at a church one town over from where i grew up.. at which i did very well..

 i'm not hybernating.. just recharging (i'll post in my diet log more).

i still needed more of a pick me up when i got home so i tried on clothes for a 1/2 hour.. found 4 more pairs of jeans that fit (only one that i had to whisper to)
so, here it goes:

**YOU STUPID SCALE!! YOU MOVE FOR KARENIE OR SO HELP ME!**

or if this works better:

**scales.. if you can here this.. move for karenie (down, not up) and I will be forever grateful**

obsidyan!  i'm so glad to see you...  and thanks, karenie, for bringing her out...  if my scales don't move this week, i think i'll be asking for our resident whisperer to speak to mine also teeheehee

ob....hope you are doing ok.  I sent you an email yesterday after the post(you know what Im talking about) Please dont let peoples negative thoughts and words keep you from posting.  Your words are so encouraging for many people and I can almost see your smile when you post good news!  But I can tell by the post yesterday things were stirred up and I still believe that was the point of her post...which really brings me to a boil.  If you want, please email me privately.  No one condemns you for the things you said, you spoke your mind and honestly were more polite than the post you were replying to.  We all need you and your words and I, personally would miss you!!!  I want you to take a deep breath and know this is a safe place for all of us to vent and be there for one another but sometimes negative things enter our safe place and we are there for one another...as you can see Im not the only one that would miss you.  we love ya girl and we all consider you a great asset to this site.

Make everyday a Slaptastic day! LOL

Slappy :)

slappy.. i didn't get it.. the hubby runs my mail server and has an overactive spam filter.. :(  i'll add you into my mailbox so i'll get new ones..

love the quote.. it's so true.

and to all.. thank you for being so nice..

oh.. and guys.. just fyi.. i have to take my laptop in tomorrow.. my battery isn't charging... if it's just the battery then i'll have it back right away.. but if it's the charging unit in the laptop they'll have to send it out.. so if i'm not on as obsessivly as usual, "Don't Panic!"  (all you hitchhikers fans out there will get this.. hehe).

Obsidyan - I have no idea what happened yesterday but as Slappy says please don't stop posting.  I look forward to seeing what you have to say every day.   Your point of view of life is so right on and you have made me open my eyes to what truly goes on around everyone everday.  Please stay with us!!!!

Tammy :)

ismile- thank you.. :)  you guys are so wonderful and to be honest most of the time i don't know who you are describing.. i'm a screwed up girl who is trying to get better.. i just like to tell things like i see them.. hehe

karenie- just got your email.. thanks a bunch!  made me smile.. :)

obsidyan... I am not sure of everything that has been going on??? I will try to back track tomorrow... Please don't  leave ... I don't like this......On your post and from the beginning you have inspired me so much.  I will be bummed if you leave. Please know that we are all here to support you..sorry I have missed something obviously...

oh  am so happy, as happy as can be, for obsidyan will not be hybernating. now I can go to bed and sleep without worrying about my friend.

goodnight .....love, karen

(((((((((((((((((((((hug))))))))))))))))))))) ))))))))))))

group hug everyone!!!!!  We are a family here guys!

*flick*

Don't ever sell yourself short, obsidyan-negative thoughts is what send us all into the fridge in the first place.

Part of all this hard work is recognizing how truly kickass we all are. XD

Repeat it in front of the mirror daily.

'I'm awesome-and people who don't think so just don't know what's good.' :P

awesome choco!  Ob stood up for herself and everyone here and she should be proud of herself!  She is an amazing person and I hope she is realizing that now(slappy turns to look at Obsidyan with a smile!)

thanks guys.. :)  i'm not too sure about the amazing part though.. i just don't see that but thanks!  :)

sometimes its easier for others to see things in us than it is for us to see it.  :)

Nope dont let others words of uglyness overwhelm you....I dont know
what happened but I gather that something ugly with words happened so
just say...hum.....and go on girl...huggers from lurleen

*sigh* Okay, I know right now I am probably thought of the worst person ever. And truly and honestly I didnt start a post to stir people up. It was just a question. Now I hope this post doesnt get deleted because I am posting. BUT. I would just like to point out, that this site has been wonderful for trying to get me on track for a healthy lifestyle. And I posted a post about....???oh my goodness, hmmm it was about SOMETHING, hehe, but it mentioned me not trying to lose weight healthily. And then Obsidyan posted back a little rant (that I needed and deserved) but seriously people, my life has been SO screwed up lately and I have NO ONE to talk to about it. Like I mean NO ONE. So I got kind of in a huff and, if you knew what I was going through you would understand. And I tried posting back that I AM trying to be healthy. And I felt kind of upset, but anyways. I am really making this longer than it should be.
I just came to say, I am not really that much of a bi*** that I seem to be, life is rough right now. And internet at the time is my only sanctuary and I didnt feel too happy once I found out I had a little hate club, :). But anyways I am over it, and I just thought that I would share my side of the story.
Hope this clears up some things. :)

ohh sweetie.. none of what was being discussed in this post was about you.  it was about that post about being a vegetarian..  she said some very hurtful things.. that's who we are ticked at. 

I for one don't think you are a b****.. i think you need more help than any of us is able to give you.. i was not trying to rant at you.. i was nervous about your health.. i don't like seeing people that i like hurting themselves that way.. i am sorry if you took what i said as being mean... i meant every word as concern!  i think you are ready to get the help you need and i truly think if you get it you will be a okay health wise.  i also don't think you need to leave this site.. there are plenty of other people here who have recovered from an eating disorder (yes being overweight is just a different type of eating disorder but one nontheless).  and there are people here who are struggling with the same issues you are and if you guys band together i think you can make a real difference in your lives. 

I like you.. i've always liked what you've had to say.. i just got really scared about you saying those things (you know what i mean).  you don't have a hate club.. i for one like you.. DON'T LEAVE! :)  

((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))

dyintobe, none of this was directed towards you.... like obsidyan said it was another post!  I must have missed the one you were talking about.  We are all here for the same reason!!  I dont think you and I have met yet so welcome to the site! 

Lol, here I thought I had a little hate group forming.

Well thanks for saying all those nice things obsidyan :) I mean, I  know my eating habits arent really healthy, but if you knew what I was doing before, what I am doing now is a step forward. And this site is how to lose weight a healthy way, and I am trying to do that. Its going to be pretty slow, but Im getting there :) 
Anyways, since there are NO councellors where I am,(the school one doesnt count, I HATE her.) I just have to try and fix things by myself and I think that this site is helping me fix it a bit.
I never read the other post that you guys are talking about, but I am guessing that it might have got deleted?

:D Anyways, I got to go check out this post to see if its still on. Its the talk of the town! I feel so left out! lol
P.S~~Thanks for the hugs ;)
