I got an email today, from a great friend I haven’t seen in a long time:
Hello M’dear –
I always see your posts about your weight loss success and I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I’ve always had a bad relationship with food – I have no self control when it comes to it. Whenever I want to get healthy, I stick to it for a month or so, and then right back to my bad habits. I have lots of friends who eat healthy, but it’s difficult to get advice from someone for whom healthy eating comes easily, as opposed to a constant battle. I really want to make some serious, long term changes – lifestyle changes.
Any advice? Are there any support groups or online resources that you’ve found really helpful?
I really appreciate any advice you can give. And as always, congrats on your success thus far, and I hope it continues!
Hugs,
Me
Didn’t you see the posts about the 40 pounds I re-gained in 2011???
I’m not sure I’m an expert on this topic. It is a constant battle for me, too.
