As a leader I should be telling you that you are not less worthy as a
person, and you are not.. but as a fellow member I gotta say that I know
EXACTLY what you mean.. what is "reality" has nothing to do with how we feel
about ourselves..

This being said, you ARE back on track and that's awesome. It's so easy to
just give up when we "mis-step". You did not, you took a clear look at
yourself and put a stop to it ! That is what I see as incredible strength of
character.. that's where the difference between those who succeede and those
who don't is !

Keep on keeping on, we are here for you !

Thanks Willow. I don't know about strength of character...

I just know that I don't want to buy new fat clothes after getting rid
of all the old ones. And I hate feeling like a marshmallow. When I'm
overweight, I'm keenly aware of a feeling a loss of dignity, like I'm
less than worthy as a person. I much prefer feeling strong and
confident and proud, which I get just from being OP!
