    I confess I feel as if my life is spiraling out of control and with that I'm gaining weight like a blob. I need to do better.

    Tomorrow is a new day. :)

    I confess that someday I hope to look forward to tomorrow.

    A favorite quote of mine...

    "Everything will be okay, when you're okay with everything"

    I love that, J!!

    Hey, she made it!
    Welcome to sunny California and congrats!
    I just got back from so cal a few hours ago... We might've passed each other on the interstate lol...

    I confess that even though I am unhappy about my weight, it is not the reason I am unhappy.

    Although working out and taking better care of myself is definitely helping. Mental health >weight loss.

    I almost bought a shirt yesterday that says "Working out is cheaper than therapy".

    I would love that. Psychology Grad student here! 3 classes left! :)

    I confess that I know I need to do better, but I seem to be letting depression and anxiety hold me back.

    Then again, there's only part of me that wants to better myself for me. Most of me is consumed about bettering myself out of spite toward another person.

    I should love me for me, but I find that a daily struggle. Who would love a person who hates herself after all?

    If we are talking about weight-loss...

    There's only one thing that separates you from those who have lost a lot of weight and accomplished what you want to accomplish...

    And guess what, it's not will, nor strength, nor motivation or even discipline... It's not any character flaw, or lack of virtue.

    The one thing that separates you from your goals is... Momentum!

    You can make peace with yourself knowing that it's not you.. It's simply that you lack momentum...

    Take it one step at a time, momentum has to be built up gradually, if you try to go full speed ahead all at once, it will seem to heavy and your likely to tire and lose momentum...

    I've been on both sides of the game... I have no more virtue now than when I started, but on the bike right now on sheer momentum... Not going to be high on myself and think it's because of any extra virtue.

    Best wishes!

    It's not just in relation to weight/health, but that's one factor. Thanks for the encouragement. One day at a time, right?

    After a particularly difficult break up... I decided that my mantra would be "Living well is the best revenge " ... I worked hard on establishing a career, starting a family, then looked in the mirror one day and was flabbergasted at what living well had done to me physically... now I hit the gym... and living well has a completely different meaning...

    You are aware of what you should be doing... so... take the steps... and have a chat every morning with the person in the mirror. Convince that person that today will be the best day ever then do what needs to be done to make that happen. No excuse is good enough to prevent you from making that effort

    I really don't talk to too many people any more. It bothers me a little, because I feel like I am being distant from others, but they have been busy too. I confess, I just don't like feeling obligated to call people. It would be nice if they checked up on me as well. It just seems one sided sometimes.

    I know how you feel. I have had people tell me they want me to reach out to them more and when I do try, either they ignore my text or when they do feel like replying it's a very short conversation. Either match my efforts or you won't hear from me. It's that simple.

    I confess that the people you thought you were closest to can really make you feel like *kitten* and it makes me want to completely close myself off from practically everyone

    Agreed, but this is also why I have way fewer friends than I used to.. and yeah, it gets lonely after awhile. But honestly, why put in effort for people who aren't doing the same?

    I've let a lot of friends drop out of life due to this. Not really out of spite, I just decided to see if they'd bother initiating conversation with me for once. Been years since I've heard from some of them that at one time I'd considered good friends.

    I confess that The Beginner Shred is very hard on me and though I have finished day four,( today being day 5) im just not too confident that I will be able to do all 30 days. And im logging my progress on Instagram to stay accountable, and I am scared of failing. And then i remember my kids movue Baby Boss, in which they have the quote " Wether you think you can ,or can't you are right.) Siigh.

    I am a friend stealer. I find people I like through the community pages rarely. The ones I add are from their friends list that comment on their posts and show support.
