WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: failing. starting something and in the middle of it just stop. No willpower!
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: I seriously cant fit into any of my clothes. I can see the extra weight on my legs, arms, and tummy ..and its just upsetting to me. I wanna feel good and I wanna look good and Im tired of feeling depressed. I dont wanna go anywhere w/my daughter and my husband because I cant fit into most of my clothes. Just tired of promising myself and not sticking to it. With the help of you guys, seeing some old pictures, some clothes I wanna wear, and remembering how good I felt when I did lose weight....IM DOING IT THIS TIME!
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I talk alot hahahhaa.. I love to laugh and make ppl laugh!!! Im very outgoing and love to meet and make new friends!!!
WHAT EXPERIENCES CAN YOU SHARE: For me, looking back to when I finally did lose weight, words can not describe how I felt. It just felt like I finally accomplished something, wasnt my goal yet, but it was a start. People were complimenting me and making me feel so good. I had more energy and just full of life! I can def relate to some women feeling depressed, even something as serious as suicidal..thats how bad I let myself get. I can def relate to trying the weight loss over and over and failing each time. Wondering what happened? Especially when ya want it so bad...asking yourself, "then why am I failing?"...WELLLL..Im here to DO IT and HELP any lady DO it also. Im not going to give up and either are you ladies!!! wooooohoooooo!
