FAT MAN, THIN MAN, FATTER MAN...GOOD GRIEF!! I have been "overweight" or whatever other descriptive you care to use to call me fat, most all of my life with occasional spurts of weight loss. I've been up and down the scale several times, (mostly up) and have gained and lost over 300+ pounds in my life. However, I've begun to see myself as more than just a "fat" person...it gets easier to take on a different outlook when one doesn't fight for every breath, or have joints scream in pain every time you move.

HOW DID I GET HERE??


Funny, I've asked myself that question several times...when I am clear-headed.



For me, my uncontrollable eating monster doesn't want me to stop and think. It just wants me to react automatically by eating what I'm feeling....Have a good day?? Order a pizza. Have a bad day? Order one with extra cheese! Better yet order two because one might not be enough!


Eating what I'm feeling...well that's a joke! Whenever I am in an uncontrolled eating binge the last thing I'm doing is comprehending what I'm "feeling". The "monster" wants me to react the same no matter what..."just keep eating until you feel better."


There may be enough food in the world to eat so that I can"feel better"...but I can't eat it all!


But for years and years, I acted(and ate) as if I could.
