I see her headed exactly where you were 5 years ago but the pulling through part... concerns me. Lots of the denial, excuses, no offense but almost kinda alcoholicy "I can't help myself, it's not my fault, everyone else is tempting me" kinda talk. I mean, short of an intervention, what can a person do?<br />Congrats on your own success, I hope this will at least inspire someone to take their health seriously.melina beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10079734489990081556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7438691382825393831.post-35954830241162594352010-04-23T00:55:49.031-04:002010-04-23T00:55:49.031-04:00I have been wanting to see that diet you posted la...I have been wanting to see that diet you posted last year! My friend is doing really well, and she's doing it the right way, too. I've gone up and down, but usually with fad diets, never sticking with the healthy way and exercise. I know I would feel so much better.

You're very thin but still have curves.<br /><br />I know, I am 5'1/2 and weigh about 115, I wouldn't mind losing a few more pounds, but feel pretty comfortable, only downside is when you are close to 40 like me you get a little fat tummy that doesn't wanna go away with the rest of the weight. :OP<br /><br />I used to be TOO skinny, some people laugh but I weighed 82 lbs when I got married, and hated it, I looked anorexic but I wasn't, I ate junk food or whatever but couldn't gain, found a stomach problem and that helped some, but one medication made me gain too much weight and I went up to 131, ugh, on my short body that's not good, but went off that pill and the pounds finally went away!Erin D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08840126297932802374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7438691382825393831.post-7215969064631566352010-04-21T15:43:53.358-04:002010-04-21T15:43:53.358-04:00You are a truly amazing gal!xYou are a truly amazing gal!xYesterday Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03503742865266845937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7438691382825393831.post-31481582915809838482010-04-21T15:15:19.559-04:002010-04-21T15:15:19.559-04:00GOOD FOR YOU!!!!
