Re: Day 1 of 10

Hi Slimchick,

Ramble on! This forum is here for that reason. I get confused with different posts, so I can't remember what day you are on. I am currently in day 4. I also had weight issues young and it is very hard to deal with at times. I am 35 now and I still don't think I would want to tell my mom about what I am doing. One, she is very old school and just doesn't get the reasoning behind what I am doing. Two, frankly, I just don't want to hear it. My mother-in-law is currently staying with us and she is trying not to interfere, but she still makes comments.

My eldest son has been helping fix meals so that I don't have to smell it so much. And surprisingly enough, he has been helping me stay strong. I was shocked when I was talking to my MIL about maybe quitting and he told me not to, that I would feel worse if I failed to complete my goal. Wow, how did he get so smart???

Anyhow, (see you aren't the only one who rambles) you keep being strong. Yes, I agree that it would make me uneasy about lying, but this is for you, and for your future. The way we feel about ourselves is very important on every aspect of our lives. You will know what your body needs more than anyone else, because you are the one having to live in it. When you feel weak or discouraged, come to this site and know that you are not alone and that it does get easier.

Be and feel wonderful!
