    "It doesn't matter how old I am, I'll get hired!!" I really don't feel my age!! Hoping loosing weight will allow me to present as a "normal" person.

    "it's ok if I have a cigarette when i'm drinking, I know I'll never become a full blown smoker again.".....says the girl who smoked for 9 yrs, successfully quit for 4yrs only to turn around and became a full blown smoker again for the past 2 yrs.

    Today marks day 2 smoke free.

    Congrats on day 2! I've done the same thing...was a smoker for years. Then quit cold turkey, stayed smoke-free for 7 years. Came into some heavy stresses in life, needed "just one" drag to take the edge off. Been smoking for 10 years now. I'm on day 4 of Chantix. Used it last summer, and was surprised how well it worked. But, being the dumba$$ that I can be...went to an out-of-state concert with a smoker. Plus hanging out with smokers. Yep, right back at it. But now, all of those smokers have quit. Time for me to hang it up for good. You're doing great! I'm impressed, and happy for you!

    I'm not that big.
    I'm not as big as so-and-so.
    I carry my weight well.
    I don't really eat that much or that poorly.

    I'm not so sure that I was actually lying to myself, tho. I mean, if you really think these things, then it's not really a lie. But, man, was I wearing blinders! As far as "not that big" and "not as big as so-and-so..." Hey, the camera doesn't lie! Talk about a rude awakening! I even came across a photo from a family reunion from 12 years ago. I was trying to figure out who that huge woman was, sitting next to my mom. OMG. It was me. I was horrified! I'm at least 50 lbs lighter now, but still....

    This!!! Another one of my faves - "I'm not fat, I'm fluffy!" I refused to say the word "fat" as if it were the OTHER f-bomb! :D

    Oh, and I just started washing and drying my clothes on "regular" settings instead of cold because I always believed they were shrinking my clothes! :tongue:

    yup all of the above!

    The one I have been (still am) struggling with most is: No man will love me or want to be with me until I am a size __(insert tiny size here).

    This and...

    "I'm okay"

    "It's okay"

    "I cannot possibly get any fatter than the fat piece of *kitten* that I am now"

    "I don't have an eating disorder/I'm not sick enough"

    "I like being alone"

    I hide the weight well/everyone is always saying they thought I was lighter than I actually am.

    Everyone in my family is heavy, I'll always be big too.

    Someday I'll find someone who will love me no matter what size or shape I am (-- pretty impossible if I don't love me first)
