Support? Anyone, Anyone at All?

I am a very supportive person. Mainly because I've never been a jealous person. If I have a friend who is selling something or starting some sort of new endeavor I try to always be there for them. Yet, I've found myself surrounded by people who aren't as supportive as I am. This is so very frustrating to me because the people I think should be front row and center to support me are only people who I have done things for in the past. But time and time again I find out that y friends and even some family members just aren't the supportive type.

I started a group called Diva's Connection which has three main goals: 1. Socialize (Visit our MeetUp site HERE) 2. Network (I'm a small business owner and I want to connect with other small business owners my business but also to help other women entrepreneurs grow their businesses) and 3. Mentor (a DC jr. group is coming soon). DC is 58 members strong and I know 3 of the divas personally. 1 of them I created the profile for myself and NONE of the 3 have attended any of the 25 past meetups. Really? What's the issue? This is not a hard thing to do.

I also own an online jewelry store Simply Unique which I promote mostly on Facebook. I'm over 600 friends strong on FB yet I don't think I've ever made a sale on FB. As a matter of fact I can't even get people to 'share' the link to my store with their friends. WTF is the problem? I'm so frustrated I can't even fully express it here in this post.

Anyway - what frustrations have you had in gaining the support of others in any of your endeavors?

Hmmmm. Maybe I need new friends!

Hey y'all!    I was finally able to get my grubby little paws on more Michaels Craft Store Grab Boxes. It was completely by accident, I simply wanted to buy a t-shirt to complete an order and I saw 4 boxes so I purchased 4 boxes. Here's what was inside: Most of this will get used. I was most excited about the floral department stuff and the lights. The total for my boxes is over $400. Anything I can't use, I'll be donating to my job!

BOOK REVIEW: "I Almost Forgot About You" by Terry McMillan

While I'm not a Terry McMillan fanatic, I do usually enjoy her books. This title was hard to read and confusing from the very beginning. I understand that Georgia is on a mission to find herself but the books is long and gets boring often. Plus there are way too many characters to keep up with. I will still pick up a Terry McMillan book in the future but I do not recommend this book.

Weight Loss Check In- Week 1 - Days 1 thru 7

Starting Weight: 290 according to the new scale. Target Weight: My initial target weight for the end of week one was 282 lbs. but that was when I thought I weighed 285. Current Weight: 287 Next Target Weight: 285 - kinda feels like I'll be 2 weeks behind. How Many To Lose: 2lbs. Hopefully I'll lose more. Overall Goal Weight: 175 Overall Need to Lose: 112 Good LORD! This week I started with meal replacement shakes. My will power was not strong! I was able to do the shakes 3 full days, meaning I had one for breakfast and one for lunch with a sensible dinner. I purchased both Slimfast and Atkins and have been having the Slimfast shakes for breakfast and the Atkins shakes for lunch. I would say that those are to credit for the 2 lb weight loss because I didn't exercise...at all - just tried to move around more. This upcoming week I am going to do the meal replacements Monday -Thursday and see how many pounds I lose. Even though the scale didn't move much I do h...
