[LAK]

Hi, I'm Lisa (aka Lak) I've been in ww for the past 6 months and have lost as well as starting to exercise which is a struggle for me b/c I hate all kinds of physical activity. But, I'm trying.

I have two main problems that I could use encouragement with:

1. I thought when I lost weight, I'd look better, that the fat around my tummy and hips would melt away. It's melted but still and most likely always be there no matter how much I weigh. If anyone else feels this way, what do you do?

2. My husband and children are thin. Son runs CC & track for a college ( 8 miles a day is nothing for him) he eats everything! My daughter is a spin instructor at the Y -- enough said about her... and, my husband is a triathlete.
It's hard for me. Any encouragement? Please don't tell me to exercise more, I loathe it. Two days a week at the Y is all I can take.

Hard to keep on track feeling this way : (

Welcome. LAK are you pretty close to goal weight having been to WW for six months? I am looking at your post and thinking your family should be very supportive as they are really into keeping fit, it sounds.

Learning to embrace your appearance as it is now.Loving yourself with all your endowments probably sounds like a difficult thing to do but in order to sustain weight loss we all need to love ourselves as we are. The rest will come in time.

Best wishes to you.
