- I am in fact an emotional eater
- when I pay attention to eating I do actually lose weight
- i can lose weight IF I try
- I have to WANT to lose weight
As many of you know, I have been going through a lot this past month and instead of those new challenges that have been placed in front of me being a motivator, I have used them as an excuse...well no more!
So here is to the NEW challenge that the Shrinking Jeans crew is going to come up with and know that I will be motivated to continue this time...
Congratualtions to all my sisters (and brothers) who did this challange and WAY TO GO TO YOU ALL who has success...ESPECIALLY my good friend Kate who more than achieved her goal but surpassed it! I am so proud of you Kate!!!
Looking back over my personal blog (which is private) I realized that I have GAINED over 20lbs (23.9 to be exact) since roughly this time last year. I mean come the frick on... all my friends are losing weight, you'd think that would be an inspiration...but no it seems that I am having even more self-distructive behavior... BUT in the same sense, how can I teach my children to be happy with who you are when I am not even happy with what/who I am... thought for the week I guess, but hopefully I will be able to get my fat ass off the couch and onto a healthier me...

Being aware of your faults is a good first step. That way, when you are ready, you can target them and have success. Good luck!
I agree that being aware of your faults is a good place to start.
It's so true that you have to be in the right mind to start a weightloss program. I've struggled with it for the last 10 years and it wasn't until I was really ready that I was able to start losing the weight.
I hope you stick around at the Sisterhood! Even if you aren't ready, sometimes being around others and hearing about their journey can help you along your way.
