    most horrible things was: -- I cannot do this.
    -- I don't diserve this.
    -- i am not meant to be fully happy.
    -- Always settle for less than what i should have!

    Once I start watching my diet and excersizing, I'll look like J-Lo.

    Turned out my body had other plans for me when I lost the weight: I've may even have a bigger booty than J-Lo but now with the chest of Cameron Diaz... *sigh*...

    Yeah, it didn't do a thing to flatten my stomach, but it gave me four *kitten*-cheeks! :laugh:

    "I'll lose the weight I put on during pregnancy after I've given birth".
    Yeah... doesn't happen, since it totally wasn't baby weight - just fat weight.

    "I'm getting older, I can get fat if I want to!"

    I can't believe I used to say that crap. I look and feel soooo much better.

    :laugh: I've heard the four-butt look is in this year :laugh:

    It's like with corsets that have to redistribute the fat....I'd end up with boobs up to my chin and hips that had a gravitational pull :blushing:

    Totally with you on that one - it's interesting what we tell ourselves to avoid changing!

    "My metabolism will keep me thin, I can eat whatever I want"

    And it did....until hit 28. Then I slowly started to gain weight until I had to listen to my body!

    "I'm just big boned". I may have a larger frame than the women in my family but get real...I was fat!!!

    I did this one for years. Until I worked out that actually, I have the smallest frame size you can possibly have and I'm short so actually, it was all fat! :noway:

    ^^THIS!! 4 years after having my daughter I FINALLY realized I had to stop calling it "baby weight" and refer to it as what it was... FAT!

    "I'm just big boned".

    I used to say that too.

    Best response: "Really? I've never seen a fat skeleton before!"

    I have too much I am dealing with at the moment - I will start trying to lose weight at the end of the month, beginning of the year, after the boys are older...

    silly sod - now I just wish I had started sooner lol but it's all good at least I am on track now :)

    "You only live once, so you may as well eat as many awesome foods as you can while you've got the chance."

    Now my attitude is more like:

    "You only live once, so DON'T SCREW IT UP BY DYING YOUNG"
