The only thing was that with me being a food addict is that I didn't actually have a "final straw." There was nothing I couldn't get used to, no humiliation that I wouldn't adapt to eventually. By some weird turn of events I ended up in a 12-step program (would have run if I'd realized what it was ahead of time) and, amazingly enough, after I went I never had to diet again. I've been abstinent for nearly 11 years, weigh 130 pounds and haven't binged or wanted to binge in all that time. Whatever your solution is, my best on a happy, healthy future!Linda Pressmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809808676659629555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733642788093921495.post-68495797686152517552011-04-26T08:12:05.362-07:002011-04-26T08:12:05.362-07:00This is exactly the thought I had last year when I...This is exactly the thought I had last year when I started my diet. I got very emotional thinking about my children and how they would be affected if I continued down that path I had started. <br /><br />I grew up with an obese mother and it colored every part of my childhood. I never want my children to have to worry that I won't be able to fit into a booth at a restaurant. <br /><br />You just have to do it. Everyday, all day.

You eat every 3 hours and follow the plan and you lose 2-5 pounds a week. It's not that hard but does take commitment. I would be happy to be your coach!<br /><br />Anyway... you CAN get it in gear! You can do hard things, girl!! And you are worth it!!<br /><br />God bless...<br />~MargeneMom to the Fourth Powerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10091089683550035826noreply@blogger.com
