Ok well here is my story.....
I am a 30 year old student, mother of two and wife. I quit work a month ago and although I haven't gained any weight I haven't lost any. I am not obese but I am unhappily overweight. I am 5'8 and weigh 176 lbs. I don't want to be waif thin but it would be nice to turn my husbands head once in a while if you know what I mean. I have had my SB book for close to a year, I have read it twice and don't seem to be able to put it into action.
I go to the gym 4 days a week-Combined(I walk and ride the stationary bike up to 6 miles a day. I lift weights and I have started to take yoga. My problem is I can't control my eating. Even though I am overweight I am in better health mentally and physically than I was when I was 23 and weighed 123 and I thought I was fat.... If I only knew then what I know now.
I am a recovering bulimic and laxative addict- I have to really watch myself to keep from falling back into those habits.
I need what ever support I can get to get over this hump and start this diet. Any suggestions. I hate to look at myself in the mirror anymore. I could use what ever advise is available, does anyone know where you can buy will power?
