Hi all- I just looked back in my profile. no posting since April. Doesn't mean things have been right--but different. I have this part time job that kind of took on a life of its own this summer--good for the $$, questionable for the home situation. H has continued to smoke pot daily and once in a while binge drink when he isn't zoned out enough. However, he appears to be on a new sabbatical. We'll see. He actually went to a meeting tonight. I am not stressed about it at all. I really know that what I do or don't do has no bearing on his use. I do think he is no longer in denial and does have more motivation than usual. I'm just not getting my hopes up. Ironically, I decided to rejoin Weight watchers this past weekend (too much fast food and no exercise makes Gknee a chubby gal) H and I have talked about how we both have issues with overdoing something that isnt good for us. I feel like my admitting my imperfections somehow makes him feel less guilty. But in a good way-- he is very self hating due to his addictions. I think we all have issues. At least I do. I need to be less self righteous and then just focus on me (and my shrinking reflection in the mirror, I hope) thanks for listening/ looking forward to seeing whats up here now G-knee

WB and good luck with the weight. All of America is having issues with weight so you are not alone! My doctor put me on a weight loss program with fat burner and B vitamin injections. I also take the B complex liquid twice a day and I noticed I have way more energy and I am losing weight faster.
I just started atkins again last week and am hoping to be strong and stay frimly ON it. Does vitamin B really help with energy? I find that I am TOTALLY dead around 2 or 3 pm and then pick up again around 6 or so. I wonder if I need something to get me thru that low point. It sure would be nice.
