The 2008 Banned Wagon... Cruising along in my automobile...

Carly07 · 05-20-2008, 04:08 AM

Dee.. Donna.. I thought we may need this for us. Where we can be us. Where we can talk about our feelings without the need to answer a million questions regarding those feelings. Where we can feel the way we need to, so we can get through this.

I am not bashing anyone from the FWK threads. I have no desire or need to. I truly adore some of them they seem like very nice ladies, but there is always one or two in every crowd that like to "poke poke poke" no matter what you say. I feel like it is getting to the point that some of them are poking in festering wounds and it hurts more than normal.

This is a place for us.. the newly banned the elite.. the few that stood up and started asking questions, weather it be about Kimmer herself or about the WOE we started researching and looking, or about why people were missing. We are different from the girls in FWK, they think they know what we have been through because they were banned or left weeks and months ago.. Every situation is different and no one can know for sure what any of us are going through. We are all different. We trust differently, love differently, feel safe differently.

the only way I feel safe is to eat less than 700 calories.. do I think that is normal .. no probably not. but I am working on it and I am going to need help. I have gotten support on the other thread from some of the girls but others.. just throw UP UP UP the calories.. it is no so easy just to UP the calories.. I need help and advise and tactics. Not just YOU ARE NOT EATING ENOUGH. that does nothing for me. It pushes me in a hole.

I just wanted us to have somewhere where.. ANYTHING is ON topic.. where we can fuss, cuss, cry, and be kind to each other..

I feel like there will probably be more of us in there sooner or later. Either on their own accord or not.

Smooches to both of you.

Lookin'4loss · 05-20-2008, 05:32 AM

Hi Carly, I hope you don't mind if some of the un-banned stop by? Some of us really don't care for the tone that spouts out occasionally on other threads.

Sorry for what your going through, I really feel for you. Please take care of yourselves!

LChottie07 · 05-20-2008, 05:53 AM

Carly - I'd love to help you. I'm not sure if my other messages got burries or what. But if you'd let me... I'd love to see what I can do to give you guys a hand to get back on a good road that is both healthy and good for you. I do understand and I've been there too.

Carly07 · 05-20-2008, 06:02 AM

anyone is welcome here as long as you are supportive and not just mean .. gosh that sounds like a 5 year old.. I welcome ONE AND ALL that will support us on our journey.
if you were banned or not is no matter to me.

I just needed a new place to call home.

Smooch

jeanessa · 05-20-2008, 06:06 AM

I'll pop in from time to time, too! I really don't tend to get mean unless we're talking about Heidi!

LChottie07 · 05-20-2008, 06:35 AM

Carly - have you heard from Dee this morning? I'm really worried about her. I just tried to call her, but could not reach her.

Tooter · 05-20-2008, 07:01 AM

I'm proud of you for starting this thread.

Just wanted to show my Support.

I also promise to never say the Daisy "D" Word.

vernswifevickie · 05-20-2008, 07:03 AM

I just wanted to pop in here and say that I wish you all the best in finding your way on your journey from this point on. The place you are at right now isn't an easy one but you can move forward from here. I don't have any deep and motivational words for you but I really just wanted to wish you all well.

{{{HUGS}}}

jeanessa · 05-20-2008, 07:04 AM

Lookin'4loss · 05-20-2008, 07:13 AM

I shows a lot about you ladies that you are showing your support here!

Thank you!

Tooter · 05-20-2008, 07:22 AM

Carly, read my siggy again.

It truly IS a journey. A Journey begins with one step at a time.

You took a first step. Your calories were up yesterday, right?

How do you feel?

You took a baby step. Who said you had to rush the finish line?

I'm at "Goal" and I am still constantly learning.

Take a breath. You did good. Savor that "step".

Magicsmom · 05-20-2008, 07:37 AM

Carly, I'm glad you started this thread. I realize how you must feel lost coming straight from KK to here. Heidi leads you to believe that you can't do it without her. Now you are gone from there and don't have her anymore. What I want all of you to realize is that she is not the one who has been losing weight, you have. You have it within you and you have been doing it all along - just you, not her. She isn't responsible for your weight loss. I know you have to learn a new way. To leave KK and keep doing her plan is just plain unhealthy. Enjoy that cream in your coffee!

Carly07 · 05-20-2008, 07:40 AM

I haven't heard from Dee either.. I am really worried.

SydneyN · 05-20-2008, 07:44 AM

Hi, all! Just marking my spot. Technically I banned myself, but it was a preemtive measure. If I could do it again, I would have let Heidi do it. But you live and learn.

LChottie07 · 05-20-2008, 08:19 AM

Carly - how can I contact you? I've spoken w/ someone who heard from Dee.

I would hope that someone has called for help for her. Like 911.

cleochatra · 05-20-2008, 08:58 AM

I'm here for you guys. As a former (well, still) fatty who is really losing the weight but has struggles as we all do, I offer love, patience, and good eats from the kitchen.

It's not about perfection. It's about progress.

Carly,

Dee is ok. I've heard from someone who has been exchanging emails with her this morning.

2big4mysize · 05-20-2008, 10:32 AM

so Carly how do you feel after upping those cals slightly yesterday and did you get a good faux tater recipe? Cleo does pizza and lazagna with cauliflower too

LChottie07 · 05-20-2008, 10:56 AM

DonnaD · 05-20-2008, 04:05 PM

Hey Carly, this was a great idea. Since I've been given the boot it's nice to find a soft place to land.

To all those who welcome us, the few, the proud, the banned...thank you.
