I've always been heavy so the thinner I go I'll be in new and unexplored territory for me. My mind will have to change too and alot of that is self esteem related but you are 100% right , I need to relax ! |

You are the bomb, Paul. And I don't mean the ones you drop.  | I DO see a difference just to me it's not a HUGE one to me. Just yet I think. I mean I know I'm not super fat anymore, I'm just regular fat *L* I am happy with the progress I've made. I think 10 lbs a month with the minimal lifestyle changes I made have really paid off. I'm not starving nor killing myself in the gym so there should be no reason I should fall off the wagon and revert to my old ways. I SHOULD be able to maintain this lifestyle for the reast of my life. It's just a matter of staying in the right frame of mind to do so. In the end it's up to me. Whether I lose or gain weight it's ultimately my fault. In the past it's always been the doughnuts fault or the bottle of cokes fault.
I can postively say that this website has made a HUGE difference when it comes to my frame of mind. It sure as hell beats going it alone!
Thanks everyone here at WLF!! 
Woohoo I'm da bomb!   |

Rep Power: 104 | | Cute!
your weight loss seems way more effortless than a lot of others....what's your secret? HA!
yes, esteem and getting used to being thinner is a doozy. In my experience, as a young female in her early 20s, I found that dudes really responded to me when I was all really thin (hey--a BIM of 21.5 is pretty thin these days!) compared to when I was a chubbier bunny. It tripped me out cause sometimes I thought, "what the hell was his problem?!?" And it's shitty, but sometimes shallow people treat you better right away and leave you sort of resentful. And my case is minor because I'm only talking 20 lbs here! I'm sure people who have lost 50+ pounds could tell you a lot of horrifying and humbling tales.
You're super cute, we all know that. A high self esteem will make you super hot and sexy, too. You know you want that! Just accept that you worked hard and deserve all the praise you get! Am I right, people??? |

Rep Power: 89 | | You are right, Bunny! Paul deserves nothing but the best. I'm sure the women are already noticing him more. Paul has no reason not to love himself. He's a dead nice guy, not to mention funny as hell, intelligent, charming, sensible, a great dad, oh, and did I mention good-looking? There is no reason at all why he can't nab himself a pretty, sweet and smart woman. Ha! There's your ego boost for the day, and I mean every word of it. 
Now, pry yourself away from your video games and go out and start meeting people. Otherwise, I'm gonna head down to Georgia and start setting you up on dates. |

Rep Power: 89 | | Paul's got a very nice accent. One time he said, "Lawdy, lawdy, lawdy!" and it cracked me up! Hmm...I might have to give him a call so I can hear some more Georgia drawl... |

Good job so far in Jan. You are approaching skinny fast. I better get my ass in gear or you're gonna weigh less than I do. 
Have a great weekend, Sugar Balls!! |

I'm the same damn way. I've never been "skinny" or "smaller," so I'm pretty much just going for the ride and seeing how others treat/ see me. (Not like I give a shit what anyone thinks to begin with.. hahaaa!) However, I've grown numb to always having to say to myself, "ooOoOoh... so that's what it's like to be called a "little fuckin' cunt..." Niiiceeee....."
