Its really funny how you can learn about your own feelings through other peoples words. I read one of the profiles the other day and man did it sound like that person was me. The lady was saying she never considered herself FAT. She would walk by and knock something off onto the floor and wonder how her butt got that close when she was standng over here.. lol I have to admit I chuckled alittle when I read those words, then sat and thought wow I feel the same way about myself. I have made it through the last 5 or 6 years not looking at myself in mirrors and ignoring the fact that I'm getting bigger and bigger. 2 years ago I had to take y daughter to the mall and get her a outfit for band. We went into the store where she likes to shop and she took a few items into the dressing room. As I stood there waiting for her I noticed a mirror one of those 3-mirrors inb one where you can see all sides of your body, I saw myself for what i was, obese. I got vey upset and told my daughter we had to go. Its funny and sad that we let ourselfs get to far gone that we feel we cant lose it by ourselfs. I joined Jenny Craig the following week, and over the next 6 months and $2700 lost 40 lbs. I stopped losing weight and of course i couldnt afford over 100 dollers a week forever so i had to stop. So for I have gained 50 lbs. my weight is 207 my and I stand a whole 4' and 10". my BMI is 43.4---I am obese.
