I wanted to give a big shout out and Hello to everyone, your stories are so inspiring and I wanted to ask you all a question; Do you think counselling has any benefits to aiding your weight loss.  Oprah seems convinced that over eating is a cry for help but I don't have a dark traumatic past!  I just weigh 280 Lbs!
The killer is in 2006 I lost 98 Lbs but couldn't maintain it and piled EVERY Lb back on!!! It is soul destroying cause it gave me a glimpse of the person I really want to be. 
I lost it through a total meal replacement diet - it didn't teach me to be disciplined with my food so it was so quick to come back on!!
Lookimg forward to meeting you all |
By Oprah's theory she'd be in and out of counciling all the time since her weight fluxuates more than the stock market.
I'm not buying the cry for help thing though, I think everyone has different reasons for doing it. Have you decided how you plan on losing the weight this time?
