Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 I was reminded of how many lies i told myself. I too, remembered just how hard it was to stay on a diet. I was never one to lose 100lbs and gain it back. I was just fat from the get go and just got bigger. I did try, and lost a bit. These women were anger and bitter and wanted special this and that for themselfs. That is just enabling the problem, really. Don't you think? I used to love to use my parents handicap sticker to go to the mall, i know it was wrong. Really tell me how you feel. At 360 everything was harder. And while do agree with some of the skinny ladies statements, i still thought she was a bitch. Now the lady that was swimming and has accepted herself, i say you Go Girl. That is what we all want at some point is to accept ourself for what and who we are. My personal day of acceptance is coming. I decieded to give Gastric bypass a try and if by my 40 birthday i had not solved my weight issues, then forget it. 40 or forget it, that simple. On this July 31, i will be 40 and after that this is over for me. No more of this obsessing about weight, Life just has to go on. I can see myself at about 150, for me that is a win! That is a 210lbs loss. My goal was 135. I really am not going to get all worked up about it. Boy this post is getting long, Sorry!!!! Lastly, what was up with the 300lbs sister, dogging on the brother?.... Hello. AND DR. PHIL IS NOT A BOOB, I LOVE DR PHIL!!! HAHAHAHAHA Love from Oregon, Meri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I also agree about the swimming lady. I know that at 38 I decided to never diet again and just accept my life - until I found gastric bypass surgery. I liked his differentiation between self image and body image, thought that was pretty valid and quite descriptive of me. My self image has always been great, fat or not fat. My body image - well, that's another issue altogether! Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
