At more than 279, I'm heavier than Oprah.
In this AP story, Oprah talks about how she is mad at herself for letting herself get to this point - AGAIN.
I swear I feel like Oprah is writing about me in this story. (Except I don't have as much money as she has, or the extensive wardrobe of the Chicago-grown diva.)
She talked about trying to get an outfit together for the new President's bash in January.
Oprah had one thing in mind, but doesn't think it will fit. How many of us know that feeling?
I was cleaning out my closet last week - A.) Because I need to get rid of some stuff and B.) Because I can't fit a lot of stuff in it.
I tried on one of my favorite shirts. Not only does it not fit, I couldn't even get the buttons close together.
I wanted to cry. I threw the shirt in the charity pile with several others.
I keep trying to tell myself I'm blessed to be alive and healthy. Weight loss is a process, and it will take time. That process will have its ups and downs.
I look down at my ever-growing belly each day. I can't believe I've let it get this out of control.
This is one of the hardest things I've ever done. It's not easy, and right now, I'm not doing what I'm supposed to be doing.
Oh, Oprah. I feel your pain. I'm mad at myself about my weight, too.
So, dear readers, this is why you're reading a whole lot about celebrities and gossip in recent entries.
I'm downright depressed about my weight, and haven't really been facing it.
That's the truth, thanks to Oprah's candid story.
I'm feeling discouraged, and had given up on weight loss. I don't know what to do.
