I shed a tear because weight is such a sensitive topic for me. It is not about being skinny it is about feeling empowered to reach milestones you never have.

She said she thinks it's a combo. of environmental factors, nature, nurture, genetics, etc. Her point wasn't to be discouraging, but just to remind me (and others) that as long as you are eating right and exercising and your health is all around in good shape...you shouldn't worry so much about what the scale says! She was so fun to talk to...she was passionate about what she was saying -- so much so that she cried at the end of my interview with her! Anywho, my point is, keep on doing good things for your body and praise it for functioning how it should. I'll try the same thing, and hopefully...we'll be happier for it! :)<br /><br />@Laura -- thank you! I always try to be honest because I know it may help someone else!<br /><br />@MSP -- You are so right! I blame society for all the instant gratification we're always getting! And no doubt, being healthy is hard and it takes REAL effort...but I do know it's worth it in the end!<br /><br />@Taylor -- Thank you so much! I didn't intend to get physical compliments from this post, but I'll take it when it's offered! Me too, me too! The days I really don't want to get my lazy bum off the couch I ask myself "What else would you be doing for the next hour if you weren't exercising?" The answer is usually something totally unnecessary i.e. watching TV or blogging. When I do that, I feel like I have no excuse but to move my body. And the best part is, when I do, I feel a million times better!<br /><br />@Amy -- Thank you so much! I definitely agree -- a healthy lifestyle is the way to go! Speaking of which, I think that will be inspiration for a post in the near future!<br /><br />@Lisa -- thank you :) I hope it brought you a little bit of encouragement in some way or another!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00881011231654332764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467226659190849780.post-51097364337870628552011-07-15T20:50:18.704-05:002011-07-15T20:50:18.704-05:00This is perfect!This is perfect!L!$@https://www.blogger.com/profile/08481420966189547412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467226659190849780.post-65523121373393222662011-07-15T19:21:04.087-05:002011-07-15T19:21:04.087-05:00I think you look great and I admire your perspecti...I think you look great and I admire your perspective!

The worst part is that people make extreme weight loss goals for themselves that almost never work. <br /><br />The focus is always on "being skinny" instead of living a better lifestyle that includes more activity, less McDonalds and more veggies.<br /><br />People want the results without the drastic life change and unfortunately those two things must happen together.Stephanie Irishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07637841732220527399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467226659190849780.post-63037600897490963042011-07-15T17:06:42.528-05:002011-07-15T17:06:42.528-05:00Visiting from 20sb.

I feel exactly the same way about my body and just recently I've come to realise that I need to stop telling myself mis-beliefs about my inability to loose weight for good. I want to feel good about myself and currently, with these extra pounds, I really don't. Inspirational blog post! xxShermshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15964065248681981544noreply@blogger.com
