[QUOTE="Fran, post: 155052, member: 3"] No one can make changes for you. I decided A) I wasn't the garbage can and stopped eating the food the kids left behind(macaroni and cheese, toasted cheese sandwich). I didn't like waste. No more. I'm not where waste goes. B) I was worth taking care of myself. I was allowed to feel good, have fun, enjoy the positive parts of life. I'm no beauty but I want and should feel attractive and comfortable in my skin. C) I like the feeling of not being stuffed in my clothes. D) I didn't like the feeling that people made judgments about who I was based on my size. For some reason I got the feeling I wasn't worth knowing or I was stupid because I was heavy. It made me angry. I'm still the same person. Find your reasons and make changes. You don't have to conquer everything in one day. Break down your goals to something manageable. If I think I have a gadzillion pounds to loose I feel overwhelmed but I can loose 10 then another 10. If you don't go farther than the first step it's still an improvement. Give yourself credit for being intelligent enough to figure out a plan then stick to it. [/QUOTE]
