    Honestly. One day at a time. When you nourish your body well and start losing weight it feels so good. Way better then any crappy food can or will. Try to think positive..like that your beautiful inside AND out but you want to change some things.m get healthiet. Its so important to love yourself and that alone can push someone to do loving things for themselves.. Keep a journal. Watch motivation videos. Meet friends here. Log everything you put in your mouth and just keep going. The way I think about it is 1 day closer.. Or feeling better rather then another day wasted eating junk and self loathing.

    I am a big fan of Superman. Some might think that's foolish, I mean, I'm an adult after all. But who cares? Superman has been there for me my whole life, the stories are fun, exciting, sometimes a little sad, and yes, at times, corny or even outright dumb. The point of Superman though, the reason for my great affection for the character, is not that he's super. That was awesome when I was young don't get me wrong, but like I said, I'm an adult now. There's gotta be a little bit more these days you know? So there's this; the point of Superman is that he allows for simple fundamental truth to be told. Truth told from the hearts an minds of ordinary men and women, through the voice of a god, about who we are, what we want, and the way we conduct ourselves along the way. You said that you need to do this, that is a sentiment that I and others here can most certainly understand. I offer my most sincere support and wish you the best of luck. I can think of no better encouragement than through the words of my hero, Superman. "Dont give up. You are so much stronger than you know. Trust me."

    You can do it! I am tired of being fat to, but tell yourself in the process that you are beautiful on the inside where it really matters. You can shed the weight with a little will power an encouragement along the way!
