[quote=Anonymous]I am the pp and I want to say just as a note to anyone who might be reading these stories, that tales like mine and the pp can be easy to write off like 'they made ENORMOUS DRAMATIC LIFE CHANGES THAT IS TOO HARD' but the FIRST change I made was just eating 11-7. The first month I did it I was like, at the fridge at 10:59 and in the kitchen finding stuff to shove in my mouth at 6:59.

But I stuck with that and then I just added little things here and there (a little exercise, not putting sugar in my coffee etc).

No one change felt like I was doing anything dramatically different. But I kept doing things that made me feel better, and now, four years later yes it is clear that I needed to make incredibly dramatic changes but I also know there is no way I could have made those changes all at once.

My journey to health, and I think this is true for others, is like a snowball rolling down a hill, getting it started was tough and it was small but as I have kept with it and tweaked here and there its gotten bigger and bigger almost naturally without me even thinking about it anymore. Living this way is just...my life now, just part of who I am.

But I cannot stress enough to you that the me of four years ago (and even more so the me of 10 years ago) would believe that my life today was a completely unreachable pipe dream that was an absurd goal for her to have. THAT me did it with the goal of losing 10 pounds. And every time I made a milestone I set another VERY manageable one and again, a lot of changes just started to happen naturally because my cravings changed and what my body wanted changed. [/quote]
