I have spent years and years, infact 20 years (since I was 10)
trying to lose weight.
This is the best thing that has happened for my weightloss in all those years. the accountability, focus and drive I have now is really a new experience. in my 20's I did lose around 100lb very slowly with support from OA, which is like AA but for overeaters.
I am so happy and proud that I have found the inner resource to do things differently this tme around.
Im NOT powerless over food, I just really struggle with motivation, as I used to get the feeling that "there's no point because Im so fat, being normal weight is so far off, but that cake will make me happy right now"
anyway now I have these monthly goals and rewards, and everything has changed.
Im so grateful and thankfull for the support and fellow DB'ers who I have been helped by
