I hate the way I look. I am disappointed in myself. I kind of gave up on eating right and exercising. I just lost all my drive, motivation. I feel like I have let things go too far. I am just so angry with myself. I would think having that emotional response should make me want to DO something about it, but I just want to run away from my problems and pretend they are not there. Kind of lazy!
HELP! Thanks!!!

when I started my first online diet diary (in the My Diary sub-forum), it was along the lines of "I know what I should be doing but I still tend to not do it" the idea of public accountability

but this is not the only thing I have tried. I've used self-hypnosis-MP3-files, I have read "Eat To Live" and keep listening to podcasts by Dr Joel Fuhrman to remind myself why I am eating super-healthy, I have had counselling for years (though not for last couple of years) and I involved myself in Overeaters Anonymous.

So because I have done all these things I couldn't tell you which ONE thing worked - I think they all helped me be successful

so good luck finding the thing(s) that will work for you

Look at you hand...look at it right now...now bend your index finger...look, you told it to bend and it is abiding. It is doing what you tell it to do. Now, clench your hand into a fist...look, all those fingers just following your orders! You have complete and full controll over your body!

I know how you feel. I have a whole scrap book that I?é??ve made through the years on exercise, diet, cellulite tips everything. But I just dont put it to use. Now im thinking tomorrow I?é??ll do exercise and kick butt, then tomorrow I?é??ll find an excuse not to, I?é??m tired, its cold, blablabla. Then when I take my clothes off I feel horrible and when i look down at my stomach i feel ashamed....
so why dont I exercise???
hang in there
take baby steps
say no to that extra piece of bread
stand in a mirror and imagine what your body could look like if you put the effort in...
join the weight loss challenge and let us motivate eachother... youre not alone there are thousands, millions of people like you. But only YOU can get off the couch and go for a run!

OMG,I know how you feel!!! I was desperate, I look at my closet and nothing fits. Depression was there and all I wanted to do is hide. I thought it was over, I will never lose the weight.
One night, my husband and I had an argument and he told me to get my fat @ss to bed. I hated him and hated myself. It was the turning point. I had to take control of my life and teach him a lesson. This is not me.
I started Aug 3,2012. I was angry and nothing was going to stop me for doing it.
I lost 34 lbs so far and still going strong. I am not invisible anymore. I look good and I gained my self esteem back. I am still far from my goal but I am going to get there. No I am not hungry anymore and don't care about the food. One girl online helped me reach my goal. I sent her pictures everyday of what I ate for lunch and diner. It made me feel strong. She also lost a lot of weight and decided to help others too.
Please don't beat yourself up. You can do it. I will help you, and trust me you will look back and smile. I know other women who lost over 100 lbs and took control of their life. You can email me anytime.
