i want to lose weight - now. i want to be done with weight loss, to fit in to fun summer clothes and bathing suits. i want to feel gorgeous when im out at a party with my friends. but that negative feeling is starting to come back to me. i am starting to think that maybe i cant do it. maybe i was meant to look the way i do and it will be like that forever.
i used to think that anything was possible. that with dieting i could be down to my goal weight, and finally be thinner. i have never made my goal weight - ever. ive dieted all my life. i want it to happen. i want to look and feel and live healthier!!
i dont know why i cant do it, but these negative thoughts impact my daily actions. i think, sure, i can have one cookie, i was good all week. and then, before i know it, the whole box is gone and im eating everything in sight.
today i was good this morning, but im already thinking how good a blueberry muffin would be. and chances are, if i didnt make myself sign on this very second to write and stufffed a green apple into my mouth, i would be eating the muffin this very second. even after having fiber one for breakfast.
what should i do? i know how badly i want to lose the weight. it seems to be taking over my life. i no longer enjoy shopping with my skinny friends, i hide myself in black and white. spring is around the corner, and i want to be buyinig cute miniskirts and tank tops. most importantly, i am going on a big trip this summer - and i definately want to hit goal by then. i keep reminding myself of these things - maybe it will help.
i apologize for being so negative, I am simply discouraged. i see how amazing the people here are and how well you are doing, and i would so love to be part of that. if anyone has any advice, please let me know. good luck to you all!

You can do it. I think everyone here has felt the same way as you. But they overcame it and moved forward...you can too. Some of the ways I motivate myself is reading some the success posts from people here on fatsecret. That always remind me that I can make it also. PLUS everytime you succeed and post it, you also motivate someone else. Awesome! I also read books on health, fitness, and the food industry in America. "The China Study", "Skinny B*tch," "Food Nation," and others all help to motivate on what foods are actually good for you and what is mostly just hype just to make a profit. In essence, this is about your overall health, not just loosing weight. It's about changing your lifestyle to help you possibly live longer and have an active life, not about trying to look good to people or having a "sexy body." I'm not trying to preach to ya, but just want you to know we care about you here on fatsecret. And even though you may see yourself as negative, we see you as a winner. And a winner you are! So take it a day at a time. If you're having trouble eating the right type of foods, make small goals and try to eat at least 1 healthy meal a day. Then bump it up to 2 when you're feel you're ready. Do a little exercise until you feel you can do more. This is a lifestyle to healthier living which mean that starting today (!), you got the rest of your life to commit yourself to living healthier. So everything you do small or great to make that happen is always a success story in my book! Praying for ya!

Don't apologize for being "negative" You are expressing your feelings and that is nothing to apologize for. There are so many things I want to tell you in relation to this journal entry but the easiest way to do it is to tell you to download Inside Out Weight Loss podcast in the itunes store. It is free and you will honestly change the way you think about weight loss. Message me if you don't know how to download a podcast and I will help you out. You don't need to have an ipod...just an internet connection.
Check it out please...it will make a huge HUGE HUGE difference in your life...I used to talk like you 2 months ago and I have literally done a 180...
