I Just Want to Cry....

Barb,,, haven't visited your blog in so long, the reason??? read my blog... anyway,,,, got caught up today with you. My, you are busy... I would love to find you this coming weekend. Might have to make a road trip!
You are sooo much like me... I had no idea either, until I saw a pic of me. I was shocked!!! We love you and you just need to love yourself. Do it for you, not for anyone else. my email is on my blog... type to me, I will be a supporter if you would like. I am in the same boat and working on mine too... ♥
We're so hard on ourselves. I think you look great. What I do is just put on a big white shirt & pretend I'm thin. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't! Hope you have a great sale. Would love to be there. Jan

The reason there is only a picture of Ki at What Cheer,is because I cut off the other half of the pic.Standing next to that skinny little girl I looked like a whale.I had no idea ,oh I knew a few pounds, but omg the camera shows it all.Remember it's the person on the inside not the package on the outside,maybe we should form a support group jk.I just need to stop eating the carbs,I have discovered I am a carb freak,and no real"exercise"
Hang in there there are a few of us in the boat with you
Ginger
I can feel your pain! Ginger took my photo and I hate it. I am still running on fumes though as I eat my breakfast of cheese and crackers with a slug of diet coke. Diet when I am done running so hard! Take Care! W
Honey, don't be so hard on yourself. You are a beautiful lady in every way. And people look at you though eyes of love and they love who you are.
When I was a little girl, I wore chubbies (the store Brandeis had a department called that for girls my size). My great aunt Celia (bless her soul) always told me that there was "just more of me to love". And you know what-she was right! I just need to look at myself through eyes of love. There is nothing wrong with that.
As women, we always do our part to be loving to others, but we need to love ourselves too. You are a wonderful sweet and beautiful soul who is loved by so many. Don't ever forget that, sweet lady. ~Luv~Betty
