Congrats to all my friends!! Way to go keep it up! Me I am hanging in there and still eating weird! Not exactly healthy but I am losing weight slowly. Trying to at least stay in my calories. One good thing is I am walking everyday and noticed my thighs are starting to tone up. I walk in sketchers the tennis shoe the doctor said might work with my medical problems. Wonder if I should tell her what I discovered today? On another note: anyone ever feel like busting every mirror in the house? When I look in the mirror I see this fat person. Only in my head I know I am starting to lose weight again. But I don't see it! If you are loosing weight shouldn't you see some change? Yuck I hate my mirrors.

    My attitude towards mirrors changes from day to day... Actually, from hour to hour. Half the day I spend my time avoiding mirrors at all costs because I hate what I see, and the other half of the time I just can't stop staring!! Either way, I'm with you on the whole "break all the mirrors" thing. Ugh...

    And, honestly, you probably are changing. It's just all in your head. I hardly feel like I look any different, but apparently, I do.

    I did not see much change in the mirror, but I was feeling it when I was putting my cloths on...they are hanging!!! I actually had to go twice now to get something to wear that actually fit. people are telling me that I look different, but I do not see it yet....just feel it, I think I need to take a new pic and compare with the earlier one (if I could even find one since I hated my pictures to be taken), perhaps I could see the difference

    Mirrors suck. Pictures are awesome.

    I take pictures of myself once a month because you can really tell a difference after a month has passed. It is hard to tell a difference in the mirror since you look at it everyday.

    Thanks everyone. Guess I haven't lost enough weight to notice changes in other ways yet. I am working at it. Have only been at this for a couple of weeks. I will just hang in there for awhile. Lets see I could close my eyes when I see a mirror!! lol That won't work can't get ready for work without some kind of mirror. I CAN DO THIS...... I CAN DO THIS...... FOR ME!:flowerforyou:
