I truly believe once you have a bad relationship with food then you always will. Maybe it can be managed but it will always be there.

Yeah I have a feeling thats the way its going to be I will always have to watch what I am doing because I obviously have a control problem. I am just aware of it now before I would just eat and eat now I eat and kow I am eatin even though I am not hungry and try and stop but I know I could go overboard at any time

I really hate fotos anyway!!
And we're still living in sin!!!

bummer, I thought so, I hate them too, and goody!

The date, the date, when is the date for the nuptials?

Will things fall in place because I am finally happy or will I still be lonely but lonely and skinny? Will I go out more and meet new ppl or will I continue to keep to myself and fear crowds?

Will Bones eat me because he now only weighs 15 pounds less than me?

What if my friends don’t wanna hang out with me anymore because I no longer want to sit around and snack and be lazy, I have already kinda noticed that but maybe its in my head?

I think as the journey evolves so will the people in your life. Your personality, goals and values will change as the new you emerges. If others can't cope they will fall to the wayside, and you will see the true friends emerge as well.

Happiness isn't defined by your size, but your overall happiness is affected by the love you feel for yourself.

Besides, there's always something that's going badly, there will be plenty to beotch about down the road.

I have a blog I read that is about a girl losing weight. She has lost almost 200 pounds and lately has had issues going out with friends. They want to eat at the old hangout spots and binge on food. I can imagine how hard that is to deal with on both sides.

I hope Bones never wants to eat you! Don't spill food on yourself, just to be safe.

One day you reach the light bulb moment when you look in the mirror and see a skinnier person, and that the person is you! No one knows when it will happen, and for some with food issues and addictions they never see that light.

Like mum says, you will always be your own worst critic......

Tsk. tsk. .

OK. Al. . how goes the first day all to yourself. . did you do good things?

CC! OMG> your wedding photos were fabulous. . You look amazing! I love your dress!! More pictures. . and throw that cake out!! It will not do anything for you . .

OK. I gotta get something done before they get home, again. .

Hugs to all!

[IM2fat]

Cupcake: I promise. I'm not going to give up this time. I can't. I really can't. .

At least I had something decent to wear today but tomorrow will be another story and I have to give a presentation at work! They always go so much better when you have the killer outfit on. . O well. .

[IM2fat]

OO. . and just for the record. . Never, ever use Just for Men to dye your roots! OMG. . I only bought it because I had a free try it now coupon . My hubby would never dye his hair. . anyway. . I got up early the other morning and noticed that my grey was becoming quite abundent again. . so I checked the box and it said. shampoo in and cover the grey in 5 minutes!! Well. . cover the grey it did. but OOoo Wee. . it turned extra dark and ashy!!! I should have known. . there is no man out there alive who would spend all the time we do to get natural looking hair. . just shampoo in . . shampoo out!! Twas very quick and very easy. . but be warned. . buy it several shades lighter.

On the plus side. . I may consider going a little darker (normal color) next time. .I do kinda rock the dark hair. . . but then again, not one person at work said a word. . so me thinks it stinks!!

I was just trying to get mysef out of my fat funk and thought. New hair = WRONG!!!

G'night everyone. I am off to bed in the hopes that the barking dog in the bathroom eventually goes to sleep. I have ear plugs tonight.

He is such a sweet little pain in the arse.

Makeme- I hope you are doing OK.

[cloe147]

Ah the heart attack grill lol. Did you know that it's a fitness trainer that owns and runs that restaurant!?

Oh, I've got a funny food photo! Before I found this forum, I was looking through peopleofwalmart.com to cheer myself up, and I found this:



Now, this is one individual I would love to meet, just to ask them how they got to that point in their life that they are baking cookies in their car.

Mar,

For me, getting to that magic number changed a few things but not everything. Confidence was boosted and embarrassment was eliminated. I was able to put anything on, and not feel ashamed. No more worries about going out cause everything fit!! I felt great and in control, and it made going out and about much easier because I didnt worry so much about what people thought. Kept my head held high cause I was proud of myself. Thats a good feeling and for me, when Im thinner, my world is right. If Im happy, I want to be out with friends and faamily. When Im overweight, Im sad, and I want to stay home and eat and sleep.:blush:

I think your friends will follow. Be a good example, and hope that they catch on and change their ways. Slowly introduce them to new things and ideas. (I wish my friends would encourage me to get out and move. My LCF buds always do, but I need someone to show up at my doorstep!)

I will always have to battle with my weight if carbs are involved. I've proved that point to myself over and over with each time I go all-meat, I get right back down, and the second I start to add anything, I go right back up. Im an extreme case though. You will be good to go and learn when its ok to have your peanut butter.

So yes Mar, I do think everything will fall into place for you, and if it doesn't, at least you'll be lookin fine and be no worse off. Lets get to 117 together!!!

Oh, and bones wont eat you cause you wont have enough fat on ya to satisify him! You're safe!!
