AHHH! i'm back into the one hundreds it felt so great to see that scale this morning and to see a one in front of the rest of the numbers. still a bit more to go but i am doing it and it feels great. wish i could have kept that feeling for the rest of the day but that didn't happen. I just had the most stressful situation. I was doing a lesson plan for disabled adults that come to this class. within the class was this one woman who just kept bashing all my thoughts and ideas i was sharing with the class. She is one of the teachers that supervises but being a student still i felt horrible and humiliated by her. She kept criticizing me over and over in front of the class i was teaching (not in a constructive way). I am struggling so much right now because my first instinct is to eat eat eat!!!! what can i say food is comforting. i'm just praying to never see two as the first number of my weight ever again then this happens.

WOW@!!!! Grats!! I can't WAIT to hit the same milestone. I have a ways to go yet but you are THERE, Baby!!! Grats and keep on trucking. Negative people only have power over you if you let them. Here's a story for you. I think it was a Buddha story. So this guy goes up to Buddha bad mouthing and berating him with the whole goal of trying to get Buddha to lose his cool. Buddha let him talk until he was out of breath and words to say. And asked him a simple question "When you give a gift and a person chooses not to accept that gift, who, then, does the gift belong to?" The guy answered "Well I guess the gift is mine because, I keep it." Buddha smiled peacefully and responded "So if I choose to not accept your words, who do they belong to?" The guy walked away still fuming.

Way to go on the 100's!!! Woo-hoo!! Way to goo!! Sorry bout the de-constructive person in your class. I'm sorry, but I'd have to pull her out after class and discuss how this was inappropriate and if it happened again that you'd report it appropriately. You need to call her on the carpet and see to it that you can construct your class in the way you best see fit, since it IS your class. Good luck and keep on truckin'!! Don't let her ruin the good scales!

Congrats Eli and welcome home to onderland! Sima's Buddha story is fantastic. I hope I have the presence of mind to use it the next time I am in a similar situation. I hope you are able to blow this off without using food. Pick up a pillow-imagine it's her and let it out. Like everyone else says-you are doing great!
