I don't know of any one that is pleased with their weight. OK here I go. It just amazes me how people say they hate me because i'm small. Don't they know that that hurts just as bad as some one telling a big person they are fat. Sorry I'm not perfect either. Good luck with your weight. I"m here if you need me.

I get that a lot too Cecil. Sometimes people just don't understand that it goes both ways...

I'm sorry you've hit a rough spot Janet, but I'm still here cheering you on. I know you can do girl! *hugs* Like Mom said, you are beautiful inside and out (and she is too!).

Thanks ladies! I don't feel bad, I just get so angry with myself. I'm a pretty smart woman, I think, and I know what I need to do. It's just I do well for short periods of time and then blow it all to ......well, you know.

I've got to get it together before I get too much older!

Oh Janet, you CAN do it. Take little steps. Walk around the block with the dogs. Smaller portions at one meal a day. You can do it!!!!

It's kinda of hard walking around the block out in the country. I do walk down the road now and then, but so many irresponsible dog owners let their dogs run loose and they are not the nicest dogs.

I have cut back on food I really don't need, so we'll see if it helps some. I know some of the diet guru's say if you drink a lot of soft drinks cut those out and you'll lose weight, or if you have a bowl of ice cream every night, cut that out. So I'm still trying....just frustrated.

I'm one (like a lot of people) who wants to see results right away and it just doesn't happen that way.
