    I don't need support! I've lost 22 lbs, can run over 5 miles and I'm a 43 year old mother of 2 teenage daughters and my son will be 11. I'm gonna kick some Butt in 2012. I've never been in this good of shape before and it's only going to get better. Here I come and there is no stoping me!!

    You are THE WOMAN!!!:bigsmile: R.E.S.P.E.C.T!!!

    I don't care what other people think about me. It's MY life, not theirs & I plan to live it healthier & happier this year.
    Tonight I will be smoking my last cigarette:smokin: & plan to kick my exercise routine into high gear next week.
    I like your style!!!:bigsmile:

    I want to be good enough for someone! I want to be more then "the friend" just once!
    You ARE good enough for "someone". But are they good enough for YOU? You are worth so much more than you realise.:smile:

    Either I am too good for someone or I scare them away.

    That's the problem. That is why I hide. I hate having my feelings hurt. When I find something I really want it always goes the wrong way. I was ready to move on, but apparently it wasn't ready.

    I wish someone would accept me for who I am and realize everything I do/ have done.

    I rise above the hate everyday of my life and I bust my *kitten* to prove the haters I am the best thing ever. I do it for me, but I just wish that I could also get something in return.

    hmm good topic - I am learning to accept ME, and to love me again - for the first time in a long long time!!!

    I want to lose the last of the weight from the journey I began just over a year ago, and I want to maintain the new smaller me.

    I appreciate, enjoy and take heed of the support offered :)

    We all need to learn to love ourselves and realise that most of the time it's the other people that have problems :wink:

    You know, it's accepting oneself and loving yourself that is so so very important.... A wise friend told me last year, that I will be loved by someone again when I started to love me. I love me, I'm so nice :love: lol

    Almost! Almost! lol... My wise friend has been through 2 divorces... She knows her stuff! (apart from how to find the right man...)She means the true love kind, the romantic kind of love where you see a person as the most wonderful in your life. It is impossible to have that if you don't love yourself... I've seen people (on dating sites <cringe>) who don't love themselves and get all like, "why doesn't that person find me attractive" It's because they put out a vibe of "stay away", I'm in turmoil. No one is attracted to that type of personality, ever. When you love yourself (and it is very challenging sometimes, especially after a break up), you shine a personality of "I am happy with me, and who I am" and it is very attractive to see that :happy:

    About 2 years ago I decided that I needed to turn wishing for what I wanted to do tomorrow into being proud of what I did yesterday.

    I want too many conflicting things to be able to achieve any of them. I want to be an academic, I long to be a singer, but above all I want to be as good a mother as I can be, and I don't feel that is compatible with either of the other things I wish I was doing. I tend to attempt everything and do none of them well enough.

    I'm working full time and going to school full time, while training for my first half marathon. My husband, ballroom dance friends, and family couldn't care less. :laugh: It's my life, not yours!

    the only reason you arent good enough for someone is because YOU think you arent good enough....

    Amen. You all don't need to lose weight: you need Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I'm not being snarky--CBT is about changing the way you THINK. I could definitely use it myself, too).

    what do you want? really want? are you not going all out for what you want because of what someone else might think about you? is your pride preventing you from gettin out on that fragile limb? what is holding you back?

    do you ask rather than tell? what are you waiting for? so many ask ... "please help...please support.... instead of declaring .."this is what I am doing!"

    what are YOU doing?
    I decided long ago to go after what I desired.
    Nobody is out there waiting to reward us for anything; we must take action.

    I set my goals based on what I wanted; looked at those who had already succeeded and saw what these folks had in common and what action they took. And then I did likewise.

    Life rewards people of action.
    Life punishes those who sit on the sidelines.

    That's reality.

    i agree, i took a look at your photos and you look lovely...actually i read your profile too (not to be creepy), and you seem very sweet as well.

    I hope you find love because I can tell already that you deserve it and I really hope you find someone who will bring up your self-esteem >.<

    I'm going to reach GW by end of Feb / March and finally be in the 'Healthy' BMI range - not been there for many years and I'm looking forward to it! I'm also looking forward to the wardrobe clear out :)

    I want to get out of this fat suit! I feel like a skinny healthy girl trapped in fat slow blob. I want to enjoy my 20's and my life!

    I was that person for so long. I had to let those guys go, even as friends. I stopped wasting my time looking for someone and started enjoying life.

    someone told me "once you stop looking for someone they will come along" And that is what happened to me. We've been together 15 years now and he loves me fat or skinny.

    Hmmm I want to be fit and healthy and smokin' hot. So, I am out here trying more extreme and more frequent workouts than I ever have in my life. I stopped fooling myself about what I eat, cleaned up my diet, and cut alcohol to 4drinks or less per week (no matter what the occasion)(at least for now). I stopped waiting for great people to come into my life and started going where those people are. I might even stop working, and working out long enough to go on a date or ten this year LOL

    Whoever told you that ought to be slapped. I haven't looked in three years and guess what? I'm still alone.

    I want to be strong enough to make it through the next 3 years. Will be entering and finishing nursing school while working full-time and I'm terrified of feeling like crap the whole time!
