I don't think it's a lifestyl...What is perfection? I don't think it's a lifestyle that you'd really want to attain, nor would Tom want you to. Isn't your happiness with Tom and the wonderful, love-filled life you share enough of perfection for you? So, you may not weigh exactly what you want...do many of us? Heck, my weight has been a roller coaster for 30+ years and it's just now sinking in for me that all those years of being a yo-yo with weight, perhaps my body was saying 'hey, I'm happy right where I am'. I certainly know that's the case with me now and unbelievable to say so, I have finally accepted that. I would venture to guess many a girl your age would give anything to have your shape, anything to have the active lifestyle you lead, and anything to have the love of a husband as you have from Tom. Perhaps that IS perfection!<BR/>I love you <BR/>xoxoxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577879543257460285.post-38047275991239251552008-01-18T20:37:00.000-05:002008-01-18T20:37:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12548690119129597903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577879543257460285.post-13451497115760187782008-01-18T20:35:00.000-05:002008-01-18T20:35:00.000-05:00Hey now you're being silly! How is being perfect a...Hey now you're being silly! How is being perfect a realistic goal? <BR/><BR/>A little story: A friend of mine lost over 100 pounds. When we traveled for work, she would pack all her food. She would only stay in hotels that had mini fridges for her food. She brought a scale with her to the dinner table and weighed her portions. I'm talking nice restaurants. She was a personal trainer and taught exercise classes at the gym. I like her a lot, because she and I worked out at ungodly hours and we both had reputations for being "healthy". <BR/><BR/>She and I gave talks to the staff on being healthy. That was when I realized for her, it was an obsession. For her, eating a 1/2 cookie was a very bad day. It totally blew her out of the water. So she never let it happen.<BR/><BR/>She had to control every aspect of her life because she was afraid of losing control and gaining all that weight back. She felt she had to be perfect all the time. <BR/><BR/>I wouldn't wish that on anyone. http://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/dsef07/t5.aspx?id=7373&filmno=0Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12548690119129597903noreply@blogger.com
