This weekend I visited a girlfriend and spent two days watching myself in the floor to ceiling mirrors that surround her dining room. I actually looked at my body for the first time in a very long time and needless to say, I was VERY unhappy with what I saw. All too often I pass a mirror without ever looking into it, and when I am in front of a mirror to get ready, I find that I focus only on my eyes because the rest is too hard to take in. All of this realization just made me feel miserable, so I decided to stuff myself so that "full" was what I felt instead. Last night was the final straw as I sat in a McDonalds and I caught my reflection in the glass..the miserable "fat girl" stuffing my feelings into my face by way of a double cheeseburger. I can't continue to live this way, I WON'T continue to live this way. There is always a moment when you can turn it all around, and that moment is now.

I feel the same way & am here to lend support. Maybe we can push each other. I'm on Atkins, but a buddy in weight loss is always welcome.
