I was reading the post here, and I think it could be a really great thing to have a weight loss buddy! Not something I would have come up with lol

To tell the truth, I don't know what my weight is right now, I don't want to know... because I know myself well enough to know that if I do know I'll get angry when the scale doesn't move and I'll throw my hands up again and say well then I guess I'm just meant to be fat.

I don't want to do that.... even though I don't know what it is, my best guess is that I will need to lose about 50 pounds to be happy by my wedding... not that I don't need to loose more than that, but I will be happy if I can reach that goal by Jan. I may be expecting to much of myself, but I'm going to give it all that I have.

I also don't want to look at the scale because I've got it in my head that my main goal is not to lose weight but to be healthy. I said on another post before that my dad has stage 4 colon cancer, and he pretty much lived off of fast food and unhealthy things. There is no history of cancer in my family at all. I am convinced that it is his eating habbits that has caused the cancer. Food has been an addiction for me but it is not worth my life!

It's hard though, I think having someone to talk things out with will help!
