Starting again
Should read 'Day Ten of Sobriety', but Lord forgive me, I am weak. :frown: Before the hell fire starts raining down I feel I should at least make a few confessions. I worked hard last week to stay away from temptation, and did well. Well enough. With each progressing day, though, my chest would feel tight and my blood…

Well I've had a bad past 3 days. I haven't followed my diet and haven't exercised. I feel like a bloated cow. It's amazing what 3 days of eating fatty foods does to you.

Scared
By no means am I anywhere near to being thin yet, but when I try to imagine myself thin I can't. I am now down to the same weight I was in highschool. I have been overweight for as long as I could remember. I am scared of how I will look. I am scared at how I will feel when people look at me. Already people are just so…

THE Scale (or lack thereof) Challenge (round 2)
So we did this back in November, and for me, it worked out GREAT! I know it worked for a few others too. Summary: THE SCALE, it strikes fear into the heart of millions of adults every day! Yet, like a drug, we turn to it every day hoping it will give us a number lower then yesterday! Checking the scale on a daily or even…

20 pounds gone!
I look in the mirror and see a tummy that I don't want to see. A little depressing until I think about what I must have looked like 20 lbs ago. That thought revitalizes me instantly. Twenty pounds gone. I've made the effort and it's paying off. Sure there is still a tummy there that I don't want to see but at least there…

how can this be?
I told myself I wasn't going to go shopping until I had lost another 25 pounds. Well my mom called and wanted me to go with her so I went.

My goodness was it so hard. I was thinking to eat something... I was thinking cereal, but I can't really just eat a bowl. I'll eat it until my stomach hurts, yes binging on it. Then I was like ok, I can't do this to myself. I have to do the right thing. It was soooooo hard. So I grabbed the precut broccoli (raw) and I…
