    Lighten up, people, you don't know the first note of the music that moves me. (apologies to Patrick Rothfuss).
    Oh yes we do.

    as someone with a fantastic ability to overeat I find that the problem is not finding willpower it's finding WONT POWER...another piece? No, thankyou, I wont...

    No-one has EVER held a gun to my head and forced me to eat. I imagine there are many people who get on a roll though and find it hard to stop once started, like me, whether it's alcohol or cake or bread or celery.

    I think you are making the point of ownership...

    MY NAME IS LIZ, I MADE MYSELF FAT.

    Someday I may have a moan about trying to cope with daily temptation whilst I change my lifestyle....
    ..if I do, feel absolutely free not to read it. :flowerforyou:

    I am SICK of people telling me to just 'get some self control.'

    Tell. Me. HOW. Because clearly I don't have it instinctually. STOP having a go at people with problems and tell me how to go about 'mustering some self control'!!!

    If I had an 'on' switch for being good, I'd have turned on by now, darling!

    Oh wow, since when is support a bad thing? Do I need to do this myself? Yes! Has getting encouragement helped me? Yes! Have I had a couple of bad moments when willpower wasn't enough? Yes again (how do you think I put on the weight...)! New habits, improved willpower and not giving in to cravings takes constant work, and we all slip and get frustrated sometimes. Those posts are just about VENTING, and as the old saying goes "BE NICE OR LEAVE".
