Once again I am about to quit with the weightloss thing only because I just cant control myself without this PC. I like the weight I am at now though I could still lose about 20lbs more. Ah well. Always when Im about to quit something happens (thank goodness)

Today a man I have know since I was about 13, or 14 looked at me and said "Your changing" I said "what do you mean?" then he said "well have you lost weight or something? your face is different" I said "yeah Ive lost about 30lbs" he said that I was looking great when I told him I still had about 45lbs to lose, he said "dont you think thats a bit drastic?" cause I dont look what I weigh at all. I told him I weighed 190lbs and I want to get down to 145lbs. It made me feel great and want to lose more. I think I will try to get down to 170lbs now and see what I will look like then. :bigsmile:

    When I get down and out and ready to throw in the towel, I look at one of my pictures I call my "fat" pictures and that keeps me going!! Or I pull out my size 18 jeans that are to big and ask myself, do i want to forever shop in the section where the sign "Plus Size" hangs from the ceiling? Ahhh, no! I want to shop in the normal stores with cute clothes!

    Don't give up. I had given up so many times and it is hard. I am a mom of two girls and it has been a struggle for me to get back on track. I am like you that I don't look what I really weigh. You can do it just think that you have friends here and if you get down then just write your thoughts down and we will get you through it.
