Mind you, looking around me sometimes, we shouldn't have a population problem to worry about within about 30 years!<br />4.5 lbs gone so far!

Recent research highlights ...Good life choice Emma.<br />Recent research highlights that risk of death doubles for every 10 years that people are obese.<br />On a more ecological standpoint just think how much less energy will be required to cremate a thin person.<br />Also, the NHS have calculated that it costs over £14,000 a year more transporting fat people in ambulances (increased petrol costs, wear and tear etc.)<br />This all sounds a bit morbid so on a lighter note...what happened to the "We must stop feeding Emma" sign on your kitchen cupboard 20 years ago?Jeremynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373083699846770057.post-9910841675874313042011-08-21T23:19:58.101+01:002011-08-21T23:19:58.101+01:00Thanks CJ.

I can't stand public swimming pools, even the ones in gyms. <br />You're certainly right about it not mattering what anyone else tells you, if you don't feel a certain way within yourself then they're wasting their breath. But bless them for trying. Though I think there's a difference between people telling you you're fat to the point that you (as you said) reach for the nearest chocolate bar, and them saying "OK, I appreciate that you're not feeling great about yourself. What can I do to help or support you to get there?" That's what most of us need - help, encouragement and support.Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17327376265492188965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373083699846770057.post-63710236616045465352011-08-21T20:18:46.740+01:002011-08-21T20:18:46.740+01:00My family make no bones in telling me I'm fat,...My family make no bones in telling me I'm fat, overweight, need to exercise and eat less, blah blah blah. I know they're right but the more they tell me, the more I rebel and reach for the chocolate bar! But I am overweight and do eat too much crap, though I don't drink alcohol at all because of my epilepsy. I'm joining a gym when Amy goes back to school but it's mainly to use the pool as I love swimming. I'll do the odd workout as well but it probably won't make a vast amount of difference unless I find some willpower from somewhere and cut out the rubbish!<br /><br />Good luck in your quest to get back to feeling comfortable. There's no point anyone telling you that you look great if you don't feel it in yourself. Our self image is hugely important to our inner wellbeing.<br /><br />CJ xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
