Thank you so much Debbie! Did you do anything extra to drop your 5 lbs? I understand this is a time for healing but I guess I'm too stuck on the fact that I want this weight gone and out of my life. I wasn't always heavy, the weight came on when I was married to my ex. I should've listened to my mom. He was very abusive and I started at 140 with him and within a year I was up to 240. My heighest weight was almost 260. I yo yoed back and forth between 215-240 for the last couple years and its just upsetting that I let myself get this way. I don't have any kids I just feel my body shouldn't look the way it does. My DH says the same thing that you say that I shouldn't be too hard on myself but I'm army brat, the daughter of a Command Sergeant Major who served 30 years in the Army, and I my dad always made me strive for perfection. I guess that I'm applying that mentality to my weightloss. Thank you so much for being there for me in my time of need. *Hugs*
