11 Days And Counting Down

I was so thrilled to hear from the different people on this website. There is definitely alot of love and support here. My own personal opinion is that overweight people tend to have bigger hearts than our skinny counterparts. We have too; I mean when someone you don't know very well looks at you, do you really think they see the real you? I don't see myself as a fat woman; however the mirror is my evil looking glass and it tells me I am. I am a wonderful mother, a loving wife, an awesome daycare provider, humorous and generous to a fault. Many people don't see these things unless they know me well. I feel everyone is looking at me and judging me for the shell I portray. Now maybe this is not true, but maybe it is. I have been guilty of looking at someone overweight and thinking not nice things. Did I know this person, probably not. Our minds can be so evil. I just want to not feel so insecure so that my other qualities can shine through.

I hate to say this but even after losing alot of the weight I still feel that fat person in my head. I guess "I Got Issues" LOL

Smileyxo, I am afraid of that same thing. I don't think it is that you have issues, I think it is because you have been in a sense programmed to think that way. How much have you lost, if you don't mind me asking.
