I just don't understand this pull that FOOD has on me!! I don't know why I am so weak to it. It is like a drug to me! I quit smoking like 9 years ago, and haven't had a second thought about it, which is wonderful! But what I don't understand is why I can do something like that, and I am having such a terrible time with this! I have to give myself some credit, at my heaviest I was 250 (8 years ago) and I am 5'6", I am now at 165.5 and my lowest ever was 153.5. My goal has always been 150 and I just feel terrible that I haven't ever seen it and feel like it is unreachable!!! It doesn't sound like much weight to go, but I have found that these last pounds are the hardest, especially when you pick up extra ones back on the way!! Anyway, sorry ya'll I had to vent! Thanks :0)

I know what you mean. Why do we LOVE food SOOOO much? It is so like a drug! You are doing great though...the fact that you used to weigh 250 and have kept that off!!!!! Wow!!!....I'm impressed! At 5'6", it sounds like a good weight for you. I understand though...I'm 5'4" and I really want to be at least 140. My ultimate goal is 135, but i haven't seen those days in a LONG time. It seems like I do what you do...lose a few...gain a few...etc. I'm here for you anytime you want to vent. :) Good Luck!

Thanks for the comment. It helps sometimes to know that your not the only one that food makes CRAZY! I have so many things coming up this summer that I really want to be ready for, weddings, class reunions, ect.... Not so much for looks, but to feel good about myself. And I dont' know about you, but I feel like everyone around me can see EVERY ounce that I put back on, which in turn is very nerve racking! Especially since I was heavy my whole life, so I feel like I'm under a microscope sometimes ahahah!! The truth is in the end, people that truely care about me wouldn't be judging me like that, and the people that I think are sizing me up, well, it's probably more just in my mind. Anyway, I am just blabbing on. Good luck to you too bran!

The major difference between food and other drugs is that we can't just quit food!!
