My Diary of Shame

Congratulations x

I dont know i ask you for one x on one post & you go throwing them around everywhere wilynily. Compulsive behaviour is still a work in progress for us all i guess :). Your an amazing person Junie, keep eating that soup & breathing that breath & the next time i see a white feather on the ground i will smile & think of you.
Your friend

Guys, you have literally rendered me speechless! Not often I find my gob out of action & when it closes something else usually does the talking but I just can't find the words! I went to bed with a tear in my eye & woke up with one too! I have remained overwhelmed throughout the day & am certain that some of you have made an extra special effort to drop in today! I can't begin to put into words what that means so a pitiful THANK-YOU will have to do 🙂

Morning junnniee,

Feels even better to get to the day after New Year's Day lol.

and thanks for the x much appreciated HD

Congrats ODAAT, amazing well done, bring on Year 2

Excellent achievement in your one year 🙂 how amazing and well done. I'm sure you feel very proud .. and rightly so.

Clare 🙂

Odaat.

Thanks for popping by my thread, good to see the milestone you achieved has compelled you to relentlessly pursue your continued recovery.

Thanks for your advice regarding hydration, I don't consume nearly enough and will work on it.

I hope our dear friend has the knowledge that there are folk who truly care,yesterday I felt utterly helpless.

Today I am compelled to eradicate that, after all anything is possible.

Look forward to seeing you again, still think that the place to dine in my city is the place with the most beautiful views!

Sarah may differ in her opinion and she is the boss lol.

Abstain and maintain.

Duncs stepping forward never back

Dear ODAAT,

BIG CONGRATULATIONS on making it one year.

I could not think of a more deserving person!

So pleased that you have taken your own wonderful advice and encouragement and have made is this far.

Indeed, here's to year 2!

Best wishes,

Mark

Hi odaat

Congratulations on your year g/f and i hope you continue to thrive into year 2. You are an inspiration with your kind words to everyone on this site.

Stay strong

ODAAT i didn't realise you were a year this week! Well done! I wanna be in the 3% club...

Wow ODAAT.. doesn't time fly! Sorry I didn't make my post on the actual day.. I've selfishly been focussing on myself too much for the past few weeks, but massive congratulations to you - I hope you are so proud of yourself, and rightly so!!!

What a difference a year makes, eh? 🙂 The tone and language in your posts nowadays in comparison to when you began clearly shows how far your have come - and how much you have changed your life around for yourself - keep on living out those dreams you had 1 year ago - keep on proving Mr. Gamble wrong, and keep on living the better life you have created for yourself.

I, like many others, look up to you, and wish you all the best for the next 365 days. You're an inspiration.

Just stopping bye to say Hi and thanks for your posts on my diary. I've now realised that the normal form is to reply directly on the person's own diary, so I'll be doing that in the future.

I've finally worked my way through your entire diary from beginning to end (think I need a lay down now!). What a read. Seems like you've made some good friends along the way and it's inspiring to see how far you've come. Thanks for putting it out there for newbies like myself to learn from.

The bingo references took me way back to my childhood. Back in the dark ages when I was a girl I used to go with my Mum to the bingo on Saturday afternoons ( we were getting out of the house so Dad could watch the horse racing in peace...don't think I ever really stood a chance not to gamble!). I was only 6 or 7 and she'd give me her old books and I'd sit there marking off the numbers as they were called. Got a bag of crisps and a drink too, so all seemed good to me. I was brilliant at school at numbers up to 90, but don't think it was very good for me in any other way 🙂

Anyway, enough waffle. Thanks for your understanding and support. Keep up the good work. You're a star .

Hiya Juuuune

Some 'lurker' raised my BP last night, but reading posts to the lurker this morning from yourself and Dan it's pretty much back to normal 😉 genius....going to a wedding tomoz so went shopping with Mrs G yesterday, I took ages to find the right suit, shoes, shirt and tie combo I liked..apparently I'm too "pink kitty" ..but mrs G trying on hats for 2 hours isn't ;-/ ...we both got "sorted" so HD'S,

have a great day and 'keep the faith' Junie..OAU..Ginger x

Would start calling you Juuuuuunie, but it seems a bit presutumptous as I don't kow you well enough yet! To be honest, it took me a while to work out ODAAT. At first I thought it was your actual name ("must be dutch" was my thinking!!)

I'm ready with some ninja stuff (esp if the post holiday blues set in) but I'm not sure I can manage too many high kicks after all the biscuits that have been eaten. I ate a whole share bar of galaxy yesterday, but I don't even care. I decided that there was no way I was going to lose the half a stone necessary in the 2 days before my holiday so what the hell. Have to say, it was delicious 🙂

Thanks, as always x
