Fantastic Karen! You are doing so well!

We are all really proud of you. How are you feeling now? Are you starting to feel a whole heap better?

I'm up to day ten today and I will be celebrating when I make a month like you (with chocolate this time, not champagne!).

Keep up the good work hon.

Love Helen

Dear Helz,
Yes I do feel so much better. Maybe better than EVER!! I am so proud of you for your 10 days! Now you have proven to yourself that you really can do it - just one day at a time. I will be watching for your post at your 30 day mark and will gorge on chocolate "in your honor" of course. I'm not looking too far ahead for myself - just the day I'm living - and reminding myself that each day is a reason to celebrate. Keep me posted girl!

I'm so glad you feel heaps better Karen, that is even more incentive for me to keep on going, knowing that even better times are yet to come. 30 days is such a fantastic milestone, when I get there I will definitely let you know and we can have our chocolate celebration! I'm starting to feel better already, today it actually felt like the fog has started to lift!

Congratulations once again! You are doing so well!

Love Helen
xoxo

Helz,
One more thing I want to tell you. It seems like every week that passes, it gets a little easier and you won't think about it as much. When you do think about it - its a bit easier to accept the feelings and move on to somthing else. So...... it really does get better and better and easier. God is good!!

Hey Maagda,
6 days is a milestone - You have all that poison out of your system now. Everyday from here on for you will get better and better, and you will feel sooooo good each morning.
Hey Justme2, a bubble butt on you would be just more of you for me to love. (Smile)
