WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: Self sabotage. If I am doing well, I start to freak out and purposely binge ...
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: I have a fun goal set, and I want to be a mother someday, so this definitely motives me. Also, I have started to understand why I am the way I am. I was told repeatedly that my step-dad didn't love me, and that I wasn't part of his family by my grandma. She always would tell me that people were laughing at me, making fun of me behind my back, and made me feel so unwanted. She loved me, but now that I look back at it, she wanted me to herself. She broke my spirit, and while I cannot tell her in person that what she did damaged me, I can acknowledge that it is time to let the past go...and move forward.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? Well, I love World of Warcraft. I actually met my fiance on there.
