Amy you have to do it for yourself and if you believe and are welling to make the necessary changes it will happen. Your mom may not have said it the right way but calling you fat may have been to only way to say she was worried. You say you are/were a student as USF(which one?) I attended USF (University of South Florida) just curious.

I think mindsets are key. They either keep you going or defeat you. I like how Michael Gerber explains – The Fat Guy and The Skinny Guy personalities.

A friend of mine who successfully meets his weight goals uses a different strategy. He doesn’t fight his weight gain. He does periodic “tune ups.” He drops weight 2-3 times per year, by design. He’s mastered a technique where he can drop 30-40 lbs in ~month.

What I like about his approach is it avoids the all-or-nothing trap. He’s done this for several years, so it’s a system that works for him. To each his own.

What was final straw? What moment made you say enough is enough?

It’s great to see that you’re motivated. I wanted to loose a few extra pounds for years, but I never actually did it until I decided enough was enough, and I wanted to lose the extra weight no matter what. I think finding the right motivation is the key.

Best on luck in your quest! I just wanted to point out that you should be happy for having a boyfriend and someone to share you moments with. I know a lot of good-looking people with great bodies that are just alone; we end up drowning our solitude at night and move on. Take advantae of this support system that you have and go for it.
Cheers.

I hear ya. I think you have to hit the point where you’re sick of it to do something about it. I got fat before, then I lost 50 pounds, now I’ve gained that back plus some. I’m making a little progress now, but I’m still not working hard enough yet. I don’t have that passion yet, but I’m getting closer. Good luck on your journey.
