In need of a butt-kick

Y'all, I know after I say this everyone is gonna be either saying or thinking "Why can't she do it for herself? Why do we need to kick her butt, per se, to make her lose?"

Well, the truth is that's right. I feel so sick right now, I ate so much food today...and none of it healthy...I cannot stop it...I have stopped losing and I think it is slowly creeping back on me. And I feel like a big idiot. I started in OCTOBER!! Why have I only lost 27 lbs? B/c I don't care and I don't exercise...I want to but I just don't...and I know I use work and school as an excuse, but if I really wanted to do it, I could. And the eating is another story all together...I think I eat a lot b/c I am depressed and I never see Roger and I am always working...so I eat to comfort myself(my problem in the first place)...but if you all would give me some ENCOURAGING words, it would be great b/c I am miserable and fat and lonely...

Please don't respond if you are going to be nasty to me, I don't need that, and Stella is right, we have had enough of that in here!

Hey Sara, I'm sorry you're going through a rough patch right now. You've already gotten a lot of advice and I don't have much to add except hang in there! Maybe make a list of reasons why you want to lose weight and perhaps that will add some motivation. Tape the list to your mirror, refrigerator, wherever you need to so that you see it and remember why this is so important to you. It is important to you, or you wouldn't be here looking for help and advice. I hope you get over this slump that you're in real soon and remember that we're here for you when you need it :-)

When I first started working here, one of our experts, Jonny gave a woman with almost your exact words some advice that has stuck with me for years.


He told her to pick one thing to conquer.

Hi, been in your shoes, and in them now kinda,,,,,soo sorry for you. You know though, they say it is what is eating you as well as what you are eating....I pray when I am feeling so condemned internally, and use this board for support.

Remember, you are on your way to being a newer brighter version of you, and don't get re-routed. Prayers and blessings to you sinc, dede
