Weight loss thread

[DrummerDeanna]

Just by way of defending myself - I HAVE changed things So this notion that I've been bitching and not doing anything = wrong.

Sorry if you don't like my "I didn't eat a donut" or "I didn't eat candy" this week - but those are very real parts of my struggle - which is what I thought the point of these threads was - so talk about your weight loss journey. So everyone else can do that, but when I do it's whining and sobbing??

And your time line is a bit skewed - maybe because my bitching is so painful it seems like two years - but really I just started this journey recently...

And I've never claimed that I am the only one with food issues...in fact I know there are many here who also struggle - and they've been right there with me discussing them. Your perception that I think I'm the only one with these problems and that I sit around feeling sorry for myself and sobbing is just wrong.

I'm eating right and dragging my ass to the gym every day to CHANGE these things. Beating myself up - trust me, I'm working on that one - but these things take time - and I come here to talk about these things because I have friends here who I discuss them with.

I'm not having conversations with myself around here - so I'm sorry you feel the way you do - but it's part of my life - which I discuss here If you're so pained by what I say, I would suggest putting me on ignore for a while - or just not reading what i have to say (since it's all the same to you anyway).

I get that what you're saying is your perception - and I hear what you're saying, but because the things I talk about are very real parts of my everyday life I will most likely keep talking about some of them.

For me it IS a victory when I pass up a donut - hopefully that **** won't mean as much in the future when I get better at eating well and exercising.
