But since I've been 'good' for this long, it wasn't worth blowing it--and probably not feasible, anyway. It would probably be easier to start when you're on your own, though.<br />I like tofu, depending, but never cook with it--I've got a block or two in the fridge that have been there for ages. Will try to incorporate some when I start eating again. (Do you have any particulaly yummy recipes?) I think I'm going to hold off on cheese, and even eggs for as long as I can. Thanks again for the tips & support :)I Choose2BHappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12236528881636166057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-248875785919608598.post-52393376818672260192010-01-17T12:23:25.507-08:002010-01-17T12:23:25.507-08:00Wow what a start to the new year!!

If we're not, we're not really being honest with anyone else, either. It's a new viewpoint for me, and not an easy one.

In a way I guess I cut my "friend" out of my life because I stood up for myself, but I can tell you this much, something better does come along. I have more self confidence, and a better sense of how I want to be treated, I almost feel free! It's hard at first, but pretty soon you will realize this too!
