I confess that I eat pretty much all day long.. Not large amounts but, I am eating almost constantly
I confess that I am afraid that if I get below 200 again and start getting the attention from guys that I did when I lost weight before that I might end up cheating on my husband again (I know that is really horrible, but it is true.. I get too caught up in the attention and flirting.. Last time I made a horrible mistake that I am terrified of repeating)
I confess that I feel absolutely disgusting in my skin at this weight. I dont know why my husband still wants to have sex with me.
It Really annoys me when some skinny chick comes into the gym and barely touches any of the equipment.. just prances back and forth from the cardio floor to the weight room to try to get men to notice her... its pathetic.
I confess that I push myself much harder on the elliptical when a skinny girl is near me because I get a sick sense of pleasure out of doing better than her/them, LOL
I confess that it really irks me when girls insist on wearing too tight pants with too short shirts. I'm sorry but I dont want to see their fat rolls. If I do get a hair up my @$$ to see some fat rolls, I'll look in the mirror.
I have many more, but I'll save those demons for another day

LMAO...I look at the other people around me to see how fast they're walking on the treadmill and then I smile when I figure out that I'm walking faster than them. I know it's petty and silly, but it makes me smile.

This is one of my biggest fears! I too have done this, but I was big! Your right, is so easy to get caught up in all that attention! I get all kinds of attention now, but how to handle it without letting it get out of control I have yet to figure out.
I confess that when I wake up in the morning, I won't let myself eat or drink ANYTHING until I poo, so that I can get my best number on the scale.
Sometimes this means I'm hungry and thirsty well into the afternoon.
I know it's stupid, but I'm not gonna stop.
Hey everyone...I'm not a regular in the 30's section, but I am in my 30's and really liked this thread! My confessions:
* I confess that sometimes when I think about how much I weigh and how much weight I need to lose I think it would just be easier to die, but then I think about my 3 children and know I have to do this for myself and for them.
* I confess that I am known for my humor and love to make people laugh, but deep down I am just feel depressed most of the time.
* I confess that I am TERRIFIED of all the loose skin that I will inevitably have when I reach goal.
* I confess that I have a freaking HOT husband and have NO idea why he is still with me. We met when I was 15 and I have gained more weight in the last 17 years than what I weighed when he met me. He never seems like it bothers him and is always my biggest support. I am always embarrassed when we go out, for him, not me. I know what people think.
* I confess that in my mind and my heart I have HUGE doubts that I can really do this.
~ I'm worried that I'll have all this extra skin when I reach my goal weight.
~ I say I would like to weight 150 but secretly I would love to weight 135.
~ I'm afraid I won't know how to maintain my weight when I do reach my goal
~ I'm worried that my best friend won't be happy for me as I go thru my weight loose journey and that she'll resent me when I do reach my goal.
~ I'm scared my boobs will hang low and wobble to and fro.
So agree with these but have a couple more:
I delay scheduling nights out with friends until a later time when I hope to be thinner
I have convinced myself that I deserve a boob job if I can maintain for 1 year
I fear that I will fall back into my old habits and gain the weight back
I wish that I would have got my mother's genes (she is 4'9" and barely 100 lbs)
I fear that my neighbors will invite me to the pool
I prefer to walk after dark with the Ipod on full blast so that I can sing *loudly* as I walk without anyone hearing - it's motivational
I would love to try zumba but lack coordination and fear making a fool of myself
I wish that I had the high metabolism of my husband and kids.

Zumba is fun! I look like a total dope doing it. I can only do my legs... when I add in my arms, I get even more out of step than I already am. I look at everyone else... and they aren't signing up for any dance contests anytime soon, either... As in, a lot of people are not the most co-ordinated I ever saw.
Hi - I'm in the 30's, but usually post in the 100 pounds area.
1) my first confession is I hope you don't mind me joining in!
2) I'm afraid I won't be able to keep this off long term, as I've gained back before.
3) I'm afraid that my family will not understand the lifestyle changes I will have to make in order to lose weight for good. Yes, they want me to lose weight, as long as it doesn't conflict with their schedules or plans.
3) I'm afraid that I will start obsessing about losing weight and it will control my life.
4) I'm afraid of having loose skin.
5) I admire yet am jealous of naturally thin women.
I confess I have been in denial for years
I confess that eating on the couch seems to feel like some sort of rebellion against people who have hurt me
I confess that a part of me likes being big because my ex only liked me when I was a size 5 and I don't ever want someone to come into my life based on something like that
I confess that I hate weight ****s who think it's ok to make comments about and to people bigger than them
I confess that I would be just fine with my weight as it is if I had a boyfriend/husband again, but I feel like losing more is my best chance of meeting another special someone.
I confess that I'm still afraid of the scale, despite the fact that 3FC has really helped me get over it. I use any excuse on weigh-in day like "I ate too late last night" or "I don't want to be in a bad mood for (insert work-related meeting excuse) today".
I confess to being jealous of people in wonderful, stable relationships and sometimes if the woman is much larger than me, I think unkind thoughts. But at the same time, I REALLY hate when people are mean or prejudiced about being overweight. So, I guess I also confess that I'm a hypocrite.
This is a great thread. It is helpful, but sad at the same time to know that others are feeling like me.
My confessions...
I hate that when I was younger I never had a problem maintaining a healthy weight, then I started gaining in college and kept that up for nearly a decade.
Subsequently, I hate that I let my weight keep me from doing things in my 20s.
I hate that I'm jealous that some of my naturally skinny girlfriends look great in bathing suits and I exercise and diet and still don't look as good as they do.
I would do nearly anything to be fit and thin. I get so frustrated with myself for not making it happen. I lose and then get lazy and gain some back. I know what I need to do and just can't do it - makes me so angry with myself.
My job requires a lot of public speaking and I hate that sometimes the thoughts that I'm sure people are thinking about me sometimes interfere with my performance.
Just thought of one more...I am really upset with myself or not getting to my goal weight before me wedding. We had a destination wedding and I really wanted to be able to take a picture in a bathing suit that wouldn't disgust me.
I confess that when I go into a restaurant and order healthy I sometimes get embarrassed b/c I think the waiter or servers are thinking "why is she bothering to ACT like she eats healthy...obviously it's not working for her." But they're wrong...b/c it is!!!
Confess...
I am scared to eat this not cooked by me...cause I dont know calories/fat content.
I am afraid to gain it back.
I like the fact I am smaller than my sister for the first time since we were 8 & 10. she is older I smile and snicker when I see her. ( I know thats horrible)
