Lastly, does your family really have that little respect for you that they can’t make some sacrifices for you? If you really can’t get the husband or wife to stop bringing home bad foods then you need to look at what that really means and how much you are being supported and respected.


that part really hit home

I am so glad you all enjoyed the article. Twice I completely agree with you! I wish my mom could have read that when I was a kid. Not that I blame her for my weight but I think if she could have been more helpful and not feeling me and my sister up with chocolate and candy I might not be where I am now.

When you do well it just doesn’t happen, you earned it, and you chose your path.

Thank you, thank you for posting that link. I have been needing someone to put my weight loss into some better perspective for me--I haven't been feeling good about it--and I really, really needed to read that. I don't feel like I've earned anything but if I read this a few hundred more times maybe it'll help.
