Ammi -- I am so glad you are done with your "Fat" day-- they are a pain, aren't they. And like you, when I was stuffing my face, I think I just chose not to pay attention to the fat -- it was certainly all around me! I don't know how I missed it, yet I did.
I am feeling ever so much better today -- went to the grocery store early and plan to get in some kind of workout today, plus making more homemade chicken soup!
Christine -- Thanks for sharing your story. You are certainly dealing with issues above and beyond weight loss, and I really hope that you can find something that works. It must be very frustrating to be dealing with those kinds of issues!
Valerie -- I am so glad to hear you speaking so positively of your abilities and what you CAN do. This journey is so long and so hard that I think we need to take every opportunity to remind ourselves how far we have come (even if it is a bit depressing to think what we did to ourselves).
I am starting to think that maybe being mad at myself for letting myself weigh 300 pounds is a GOOD thing. Perhaps as long as I can be upset over what I did, it won't happen again, while if I let myself feel complacency, I could balloon all over again. Maybe the key is to USE the anger, but not let the anger use me. Something to think about I guess.
