The Elusive number on the scale

Laureen you are not alone there. I have been in the same 15lb range for the last 3 contests also. I think we are all in the same boat there. I've decided there is no way I'm going to reach my goal physically untill I change mentally. All of my eating problems stem from emotions. I eat to celebrate, I eat when I'm sad, angry, stressed, discouraged, bored. I rationalize that if I'm going out with friends or eating with family. It might" hurt there feeling" if I don't eat what they are eating. All holidays are centered around food. No wonder we are all sick! When I have gotten down to my goal weight it usually happens when I have a big trip planned, a wedding or the last 3 times I've lost a significant amount of weight it was because "I can't get pregnant again when I'm this fat". I need to address my emotions before I'll ever lose weight and keep it off! I love that we are all getting real in our blogs! Thanks everyone;)

I love YOU. Maybe one of the reasons we've found each other in this life, is to be true mirrors to each other of what God sees in us. I see sooo much beauty and purity n you. Watching your desire to use your ife to grow, and climb, and serve touches me deeply. I am very, very grateful I know you, and call you friend. :)
