A quick thank you to everyone who commented or sent me email (or spoke on the phone with my parents 
) in response to my last post about living with addiction. It is a diffcult part of my life and I know that ultimately the time just has to be right for me to be willing to change no matter what. I am working on it, and it helps to know (or at least hear, because its easy to let doubt creep into an already abused self-esteem) how many people care about me and ultimately want me to be well. And I can only hope that with the alarming rise of obesity in our country that awareness and compassion for sufferers like myself is also on the rise and that it may become easier to get help and feel loved. But, to keep this from getting too “heavy” (teehee, I just love when I can incorporate plays on words or phrases–it makes me feel witty! LOL) did anyone else catch the ancient Bartles & James catch phrase as my title?
Of course I did!
Hey, I just wanted to give you a early WAY TO GO with your salads! Be My INSPIRATION!!!!
Love, Kate
Well that’s a lot of pressure! But I am resolute in making this change for myself and if that can help you to follow my lead then I will root for you too!!! I just bought a lot of fresh produce and am looking forward to my new body. I’d love to go hiking in the Alps with you–let’s make that a reality!
