This box has been blank for awhile, I suppose I should give some insight as to the person I am. I was born, raised, and live in Colorado Springs, CO. I have been married just shy of seven years. I have two dogs that complete the family until I can have children. I have struggled with self esteem, body image, eating disorders, self-injury and PTSD since my mom passed away 7 years ago. I have a wonderful therapist who is helping me get through the past so I have a desire to have a future. I work in marketing at a Real Estate company. I am generally a happy person, a front I have learned and perfected over the course of a lifetime. Once you convince the world you are happy and okay it is easy to fake your way through anything-healthy? not so much but it works for me. I am a natural redhead :) I have my degree in psychology, I enjoy all music and movies and have a very supportive, loving spouse.
I love the gym, playing the wii, going for hikes, and going to the movies. I enjoy shopping and walking and most of all sleeping. I love to sleep and feel that naptime should be mandatory :) I love snow in the winter and warm summers. i love the smell of fresh rain and the flowers that bloom. I love the fall trees and sitting for hours people watching. I have a slight addiction to coffee :)

You are so awesome that you didn't take any today. That makes me happy even though I have a rotten day. Messed up royally today. Cut all over my arm .
Hey babe, just being a little pain, how about those pills. Are they still around.
hope you are doing good and best wishes for the week ahead, thinking of you *hug*
Thanks for being so honest. That's really the most important thing in this battle. I cut down on the exercise to about 40 minutes but to tell you the truth only because I'm on new sleeping pills and they take every ounce of energy out of me and I'm constantly dizzy. If it weren't for that I would probably exercise more.
Hey there, are you still taking the pills or have they found their way into the trash. Let me know. I really care.
I have struggled with body image and food for 7 years. I have fluctuated in weight to extremes. I now find comfort in working out and eating healthy food...the thoughts never fade and the scale will forever be my enemy
I lost my mom 6 and a half years ago. I was 20 and life has never been the same
