Here's some quotes I found from Oprah about weight loss. "I'm no physician, but I know that the more sugar you consume, the more your body wants. You think your craving is a lack of willpower, but what you've really got is a chemical imbalance.." I don't know how true that is, but it seemed true enough to me. This other one seemed really good too. "I want you to think about why you're overweight. But let me save you a lot of time: The reason you're fat is that you give more to other people than you give to yourself, because you don't feel you're worth it." I really believe this. Even if we are teens, and don't have the responsibilities that most adult do, we still need to take care of ourselves. Maybe we give the excuse that we don't have time to exercise...or we don't have the willpower to put down that oreo. But, you are worth it! You're a beautiful person, even if you are obese or struggling with weight. You need to do this for yourself and for those around you...so you can be the best of who you are for those you love and care for. And ultimately, for yourself. Don't dwell on the past, don't dwell on the negative. Make the decision to change your lifestyle, and your relationship with food. Good luck everyone, I believe in you. Much love, ~Miss K
