LJ,

I just copy and pasted. Thank you for this article, it is SO ME..... I will try some of the ideas.  It brought tears to my eyes, so many things they said are me and how I feel....

Fantastic article - thanks for sharing - I think it definitely describes a lot of us in the Obesity boat. Now if they could just form a support group or counseling that addresses this self-sabotage issue! 

BTW - had to add that as I read this article I was eating a small bag of Chicago mix popcorn and realized that it was part of my self-sabatoge nature...IT"S NOW IN THE GARBAGE - dumped out so I can fi**** out later...Thanks!

 Lisa,
Great link.  Thanks for sharing this.  I loved it!

This is just what I needed tonight.  9Body image is something that I am constantly struggling with.  I described myself as "A fat depressed diabetic with cancer" and a friend looked at me and said' "You're not fat anymore" and my response is that I am still obese according to the BMI charts.  Maybe someday my brain will catch up!
