I truly understand your comments in our event, "Who's Your alter-ego?" I too feel torn between who I know I am and who I have become with all this weight. It is amazing how the weight can affect you physically and mentally.
Your so right. I too had a military father. I used to have to weigh in once a week and if I didn't lose weight I was grounded till the next week. I learned to lean against something to help. The worst part looking back is that i was 143, and 5'5. What I would give to be that size now.
You guys seem to be doing great!! Who cares what other think....Remember as long as we are honest with ourselves we can look in the mirror and say I proud of me!!!..........As for the pizza, someone told me once to thin of it like this....A sliver....A slice......A slab....A slob. lol I am trying to learn how to talk like a thin person in those situations. I asked a thin woman once if she would like some coffee, and she said to me "no thanks I've already had breakfast" What the heck does that have to do with it? I am learning from to just copy what they say. No thanks I've already eaten is a new one for me!!!!!
Thanks for the encourging words. It has been a struggle for us but we are all in this together. It's good to see all the progress everyone is acomplishing...Good Luck and God Bless
