Dawn -

I think it's a big step, admitting to ourselves that we need to do something about our weight, and admitting that we need support in order to do it.

You mention wanting a boyfriend. I'd say right now that's probably the least important thing in the world on your list.

First would be making some positive changes in your life and not calling yourself a "fat pig".

You say that you feel unhealthy... that you're going to die. You can stop those feelings in their tracks. You have to want to change, and take steps to change. You can do it, but it takes commitment. It won't happen overnight.

Take some time to look over Diet Central. You might find a plan that seems sensible and doable for you.

Okay Dawn you need to listen very carefully. You say you feel like you are about to die, and in your next breath you say you need to have a boyfriend...come on honey, do you seriously want a boyfriend that you will devastate when you keel over from being morbidly overweight? You say you can't hardly breath or walk...how will you please a man if you can't take care of yourself? A man is the last thing you need right now. You need to love yourself, and if you are slowly killing yourself with food...that is not loving yourself.

This is not an impossible task. This can be done, but you'll never do it if you are only interested in a boyfriend. I've been married for 20 years and trust me, men aren't all their cracked up to be...and they don't make you magically happy and magically able to lose weight. It is the drive, the passion, the faith, belief, and total dedication and HARD work that will do it.

Today...right now, get rid of every ounce of crap in your house. Throw out the candy, pop, chips, the junk. Tomorrow we are going grocery shopping.
