Is that really me? I'm hoping that some day I will be able to say those same words.<br /><br />Uggg...now I "welling" up so I better say goodnight.

So I focused on the destressor my workouts were moreso when stressed rather than focusing on eating... only after the first 80 or so pounds did I become interested more and more on what I was eating. I never tried every diet, I never wanted a magic pill or a surgery I actually didn't like being fat and knew the path and didn't do a think about it until I was so big I had to order clothing on the internet and was getting cellulitus in my legs. I think more now, about food and not falling into snacking because of stress or an unusual day.<br /><br />I love the mirrors now more and more too... lol I have even flirted naked with a full length on in my pool locker room tightening my muscles and lifting my loose sagging skin for a good laugh in the odd moment I catch myself in there alone.

I've been reading you...Sean, you are the best. I've been reading your blog and many others for months now, yours helps me the most. I've still been taking the "easy" way out by eating when stressed, bored, happy, tired, etc. Not any more! I'm going back to read this post whenever I need help.<br /><br />As for the pull ups. I go to a CrossFit gym where pull ups and other body weight exercises are a huge part of the workout. I've had to use the biggest rubber band to assist me in those pullups (The trainer's 76 year old mother was next to me using a smaller band). Talk about embarrassing! So I'm doing at least 50 assisted pullups every time I work out there, hoping to someday be rid of the fat "grey" band. <br /><br />My trainer said that almost no one can do an unassisted pull up when they're first starting out. He couldn't even do them at first and he's super fit. So just keep doing them, we'll get there!

And don't worry about the assisted pull-up. There's still a lot of things I can't do yet, and that's one of them!! We'll get there babe. :)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903038555489140718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-38266780709327593072010-02-26T07:53:01.451-06:002010-02-26T07:53:01.451-06:00I still haven't beaten emotional eating comple...I still haven't beaten emotional eating completely.
