Losing weight will never happen if you don't get your head into it and are determined. But everyone has been there with the merry-go-round of excuses, so it's just a part of the process!Need to Get ME Backhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073933926054788022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467905502278598565.post-60547093514186293222011-02-05T13:48:34.137-08:002011-02-05T13:48:34.137-08:00Honest but lovingly said.

I realized I can't keep making bad choices and expecting a good outcome.

My first repsonse, similar to Chubby ...Great Post!<br /><br />My first repsonse, similar to Chubby McGee, was I hope I am not one of the blogger's that inspired this post. Then again, I have to evaluate myself and decide if I am doing all I can. <br /><br />What I do not do is I don't skip posting about my stuggles, binges, etc. I hate to read that some bloggers have felt the need to NOT write about it. I put it all out there. To me, my blog is my journal and if I don't put my TRUTH there, where is it going?<br /><br />I understnd the fustration in wanting to see fellow bloggers DO IT. I take a more casual approach to my reading beacse in the in the end it boils down to what I DO, not anyone else. It's just like with family and friends, you want them to suceed and do (drop weight, stop drinking, no drugs, whatever) but they may not and we have to accecpt that. I have a friend I wish I could smack upside the head about her weight but until she is ready, nothing will change. I will be here for her when she is ready to ask, otherwise I don't volunteer help.<br /><br />Hope this comment didn't go across as gibberish.

Very very well said.

It's one of those special talents that addicts have. <br /><br />When I was lost in my own bullshit, I hated anyone who did not coddle me. And my husband raged against my addiction and fought and relentlessly tried to hold me to account. Until one day he didn't. The part of him that believed in me got "bullshit fatigue" and died. And he just gave up. And I didn't really care that he gave up, I just kept on eating. <br /><br />Until I woke up and and I could finally see the truth of my actions and my heart broke in two. People who tell you the truth when you are up to your eyeballs in your own bullshit are the ones who really care. <br /><br />Sometimes all we can do is withdraw and watch someone self-destruct and pray to God that they wake up to their own bullshit before they die.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03661912528152366517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467905502278598565.post-29657639459853889982011-02-05T11:33:18.143-08:002011-02-05T11:33:18.143-08:00I know that I only effect change when I push mysel...I know that I only effect change when I push myself.

I ate a whole bag of california vegetables with 1/4 cup cheese and because that wasn't good enough I threw in a chicken sausage. The night before I ate two servings of wild rice and black beans. And last night I must have been crazy - I ate a dark choc kit kat.... bleh. I don't care what it is, we shouldn't eat when it's a mental thing. But I did. And I failed me. Even if I come in on calorie plan... still mental garbage - still crap. :( <br /><br />This post made me think and smile.

I know I see me. Even though I am 15 pounds from being healthy weight, I am exercising like a mad woman, and not eating animal products, I still tend to eat when I'm not hungry, just for the pleasure of eating. I think I need to get back in my right mindset.Auntie Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05341186273835771182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467905502278598565.post-54404346218163650152011-02-05T06:30:15.095-08:002011-02-05T06:30:15.095-08:00Love this post!

BUT if you spend more time TALKING about wanting to lose weight, MAKING excuses when you don't, and JUSTIFYING putting off your next attempt, than you actually do TRYING to lose weight (food+exercise and whatever else)-then there is probably a problem there... I'm not trying to make anyone feel bad, but it's time to crap or get off the pot. No one wants to be invested and try to help someone who continually blows opportunities and ignores steps towards health.Polar's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10714065039614278619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467905502278598565.post-50121360088063231922011-02-04T18:17:17.456-08:002011-02-04T18:17:17.456-08:00You're right. You're absolutely right. And...You're right. You're absolutely right. And I'm not sure if I'm one of the guilty parties mentioned in this post (I hope not...since I'm really doing well on the weight loss/eating front, but just struggling with feeling better about myself cuz...damn it...this weight loss crap takes so damn long - grrrrr...). I, too, read others' posts and just want to kick some of my dear, fellow weight-loss bloggers sometimes. Personally, I've come to realize that you just have to suck-it-up and "just do it" if you REALLY WANT TO LOSE THE WEIGHT. You have to do your damndest every, single day with every, single meal/snack. But...I can't believe how many people out there are really doing the whole up-down-up-down thing on a daily basis (most likely when it comes to eating).<br /><br />All I can do is think that maybe...just maybe...those people don't really want it (yet). It's a very personal thing to REALLLLLLLY want to lose weight and to just suck it up and just do it.Chubby McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01314736525363564330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467905502278598565.post-15348972709841822992011-02-04T18:10:00.870-08:002011-02-04T18:10:00.870-08:00Great post!
