Bag lady, really?

I’ve been working on putting effort into my appearance, too. That’s hard to do when mostly all I feel is fat.

I really appreciate all advice and encouragement on my blog. Thank you.

Lovingly,
Alexia

P.S. – I’m for having your husband weigh you! His support would only keep you accountable. The whole thing actually sounds cute to me!

There is a mom at my kids school who is always dressed to the 11′s AND always walks to school wearing at least 4″ heels. She always has nice shoes on. I admire her!

I do try to make a conscious effort to do something other than yoga pants and a hoodie. I sorted my drawers into two different sections…

2 pant drawers….one is housecleaning/sleeping pants, the other is everything else. Same with my shirts. It has made it easier to get dressed that’s for sure! I also always try to put on a bit of makeup. Philosophy powdered foundation is a godsend! It goes on easy and is easy to reapply if needed throughout the day. That, a little eyeliner and mascara and some gloss and I’m good to go. I do have one rule….every piece of clothing I wear has to be comfortable.

Jack C*anfield says 28 days to become habit, I’ve taken his course before, he also says if you miss a day, even if it’s at day 27, you start counting from day 1 again. He’s brutal!

What a great post. I can say I’ve felt the same way for most of my life, and I think that it is also the root of my food addiction. I’ve always put others’ approval of me above my own, always felt bad about myself if someone was mad at me or didn’t treat me the way I wanted to be treated.
I’m glad you’re discovering your emotional path in this process. You WILL get there!!!!

New reader, here! I just had to comment – this post feels like it could have been written by me! I am always the poorly dressed mom with the perfectly-put-together kids! I just started on this journey to weight loss, and happiness (and blogging!) Here’s hoping we both succeed!

I have been known to do that from time to time.

Enjoy your blog!! Thanks!

It’s not easy to be contemplative and really look inside yourself like that. I admire you so much for doing it! I have a hard time believing you look THAT bad in the a.m. You are such a beauty (and not the kind that comes from judiciously applied make-up!).

I know you can do this weight-loss healthier life thing because I did it- and I’m no superwoman! Not to say I’m perfect, but I was consistent and I NEVER gave up. That is key….don’t give up. You DO deserve to be healthy and happy (and an awesome role model to your wee gals!).

Hugs baby!
