The words people say
This picture has absolutely nothing to do with my post today--I just think it's so cute! Anyway, I was reading today's post on one of my favorite blogs and she was talking about basically erasing the negative things that people have said to us about our weight and replacing them with the kind and loving Word of God. I got to thinking about this, and immediately 2 incidences came to mind, both of which have to do with past male friends saying something about my weight. Now mind you, they didn't say it in a mean way whatsoever, but it hurt. I never realized how much it affected me until today. These hurtful things are constantly playing in my head! 
Also, when all of my family gets together, I look around at all of the women in my family and 99% of them are obese or morbidly obese. I think to myself--perhaps this is just my destiny. How in the world do you beat the genes that were passed down to you? But you know what? Numbers do not lie. If you put out more calories than you take in, you'll lose weight. Period. I think it's harder for some than others though. I still haven't figured my body out; just what will make this weight drop and stay gone? What do I need to do to increase my metabolism? And last, but most importantly, how can I kill this sweet tooth? 
That's my biggest downfall--sweets. You know how a recovering crackhead can't just have a little bit of drugs and still stay sober? I'm thinking I'm going to have to let these sweets go completely and cold turkey. I'll think about that for a while.

You all have a great one and I'll be in touch! Take care and happy losing!
Edit: I just noticed that EP has my location as Arkansas! I don't live there! I've tried to go in and change my settings but it won't save it. How can I fix this?!?!
