[quote=Anonymous]My dad told me. He's a matter of fact person - doesn't try to be cruel, harsh or anything though. On a visit in from out of town, he mentioned it. Referred to weight loss program that another family member did. He told me that I was very pretty - implying that I could look better. Offered to pay for it because it was pricey. I tried it. I didn't like the particular program ultimately and only lost a few pounds. He mentioned it a year later. I got weepy and said that I have too much shame. It didn't come from him though. He just wanted to be helpful. That was 5 years ago. He's passed. I made other attempts but I was really just too overwhelmed with my life. Weight loss takes such emotional energy. This January, my life became easier since kids became more independent. I was turning 50. I was out of excuses. I'm down 20. It's complicated. Hope my story helps. Good luck.[/quote]
