This is my declaration of freedom from fat, self esteem, and unhealthiness. I have it posted on my refrigerator for when I want to quit.

Never again will I be afraid to talk to someone because of what I think they are thinking of me

Never again will I be on another crash diet, or put my life in danger to feel better about myself

Never again will I refuse to do something I really want to do because of my weight

Never again will I not go to an event because I can't find something to wear

Never again will I isolate myself from the rest of the world because I have low self esteem

Never again will I try to please people just because I want them to like me

Never again will I be afraid of airplane seats, waiting room seats, or any seats for that matter

Never again will I focus on my flaws instead of my beauty

Never again will I lose faith in God or myself

Never again will I spend half an hour in front of the mirror pointing out the things that are not right

Never again will I wish that I was a different person, or wish I could go back and not eat that bag of potato chips

Never again will I make excuses for my shortcomings

NEVER AGAIN WILL I WEIGH 280 POUNDS

NEVER WILL I ALLOW MY CHILD TO GROW UP IN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT REVOLVES AROUND FOOD.
