Ht. 5'5", Start: 163 lb, Today: 142 lb, Goal: 125 lb - You know what I figured out? It might sound stupid, but it's the closest i've ever come to an epiphany. Ok, here it is; I was thinking to myself, wow, i'm really fat. I can't even fit into the shorts I just got. That's really actually very depressing. Then, I had the sudden urge to go get a fudgsicle, even though we had just had lunch 10 minutes ago and I was really full. Right after I thought that, it hit me. I wasn't hungry. That was my epiphany. Eating isn't supposed to be meant the way that overweight and obese people use it. It's not some kind of coping mechanism, it's a way of keeping your body ALIVE. Not your solution to boredom or like me, being fat. So, I've been thinking lately before I pick up a piece of food, Am I hungry? Do I really need this, or am I just bored or upset? It usually works :) Like I said, might sound crazy but It's working for me. BTW can you please help me with this? I'm not weird or anything, but I was getting really depressed one day while looking at a teen vouge, and I saw all the skinny, pretty girls, and I thought, 'Inspiration!'. So I got out some scissors and cut out every skinny girl I could find and every hot guy(im having trouble with guys right now.) I'm not lesbian or anything, that's not what they were for, It's just inspiration. Is that really weird? I wasn't sure. Thanks.
