    Why a Blog??

    By blogadmin | November 12, 2007

    There are a few reasons for me starting this blog. The main one is accountability. It’s so easy to not be truthful with your family and friends. They never believe you when you say you are ok with your weight by the way. But because they love and care for you, they will usually just nod and think, one day she’ll figure it out.
    In the 2007 Australian season of The Biggest Loser there was a contestant called Kimberly. When she was asked why she entered, she said something along the lines of being so humiliated dong it, that there was no way she would ever let herself put the weight on again. I guess a part of me feels the same and this is my version of that humiliation. Let’s face it, when you are as large as I am, you feel humiliated at some stage, most days of your life.
    A weight loss journey is huge. There are ups and downs emotionally and on the scales, there are hunger pains and depression, there are why bother days and wow I feel great days. All of these things can make you stay on track or give you an excuse to fall of the tracks. This blog will be my little voice telling me to stay on track. Hopefully this blog will motivate someone, anyone to face up to the grim reality of a major weight problem.
