Letting my emotions control me
 

Ive endured weight issues practically my whole life. But here I am again with it so out of control that I'm scared , I'm angry and I'm sad. And its all my fault.
I have put everyone and everything else above my health and it shows.
My focus must be on my life change and I vow to look in the long mirror and look at my labels and to eat to live not live to eat and to most of all exercise.
I cant begin my journey till I get real with myself and stop living for tomorrow and live for today.

Things happen, but life still continues and I cant live it like I want, if I don't change things now.
My weight as of today was 299

awwww, good luck sweetie! I think you took the first step......putting it out there and recognizing it!!! You can do it! I've been there and totally understand where you are coming from! Good luck & stay focused!:hug:

Breathe. Think about why it's so important to put you first. Turning down that donut (or brownie, or whatever) isn't about saying no to the donut, it's saying yes to you.

But if you go ahead and eat it anyway... and trust me, I have... don't let that mean you have to say yes to all of them. Find a way to say no the next time.

If it's all overwhelming right now, think about 'baby stepping'. Pick one thing to do right today. Add something else tomorrow.

I've gained back a lot of the weight I lost. I'm not happy about it. But I know if I give up trying I will gain it all back... and then some. I have to keep trying. There's no other viable choice.

Good luck!
