okay..so what does self respect, setting boundaries and relationships have to do with weight loss..
short answer
everything.
It's hard enough losing weight without emotional sabatogue on every level.
Of course it is hard to deal with..
It's even harder to deal with when you stop using the one crutch you have used for years.
If you haven't learned how to handle your nearest and dearest (this includes you) through strait forward and constructive communication,
You will use your food crutch..
and that my friends, is death to the diet.
So....straighten out your relationships so they won't be huge obstacles on your way to good health.
I am keeping it short tonight..I am watching the wizard of Oz with my little one and then heading to bed early.

Your posts are starting to feel like a Chess game. Are you planning your blogs six moves ahead? lol.
Way to keep following the Yellow Brick Road, Chris.
Your comment about relationships is right on. Relationships can make or break a weight loss program, and I know that I have often used relationships as an excuse to go off plan--you know--the "poor me syndrome." Until we face the fact that relationships may be difficult, but we are responsible for what we put in our mouths in spite of them, weight loss is going to be difficult to achieve.
Have a great weekend, dear. :)
Thanks for the comment on what I wrote about relationships on my blog. I have learned a good deal from reading yours, and "old baggage" from childhood is a very real albatross around my neck. I suspect that is also true for others who are struggling with weight. I like your "no nonsense" approach to being treated with dignity and respect. We all deserve it, and I pray that someday I can just let it go. I want to be free.
Great post. I love your blog it always inspires me.
