    I would have taken better care of my teeth, weight, skin etc... You get to a point you can't repair the damage you caused to yourself and if you can it takes forever to do. I wish I would I known that back then.

    I would have stopped myself from self-medicating with food and found other ways to make myself feel calmer when I felt anxious. I also would have got help for my social anxiety before it became such a big problem.

    10 years ago I lost 90 lbs and became frustrated when the Weightloss stalled. I was so hard on myself. I ended up gaining the weight back plus some. But now I'm losing again... Lesson learned- be kind to yourself.

    I started to let myself go 10 yrs ago. I made everyone a priority but me. I would make myself a priority if I could do it differently. It would save me many yrs of heart break.

    At 11, I would like to have been more patient, and nipped my weight problem in the bud. Furthermore, it would have been nice to have better control over "auntie's monthly visits," which began at age 9.

    Hmmm, so I would basically rewrite my entire life, lol. I originally majored in one thing, but switched two years into my degree; I would stick with the original plan. I would travel more, live on my own, date more people, possibly relocate to a different state or area....I could literally go on and on!

    Went for my masters which would have put me on the other side of the country, which then wouldn't have led me to get married and divorced. Thank God for do overs!

    OMG. So many things. I would have left my bipolar addict husband 10 years earlier. I would have got my *kitten* together. Went back to school. Found a healthy relationship. I don't know if there is anything other than the way I raised my kids that I wouldn't have done differently v
