I think a...This is an awesome post and is so true! I think as we grow we become more accustomed to insults and criticisms than compliments. We finally reach a point when we no longer know what to do with a compliment, it embarasses us, so we brush it off, deflect it. There seems to be this thing about making sure we dont appear to full of ourselves, but often what happens instead is we become down on ourselves, over critcial and underappreciative of who we are.<br /><br />It was lovely to read of a woman who is not fixated on weight and who is losing weight steadily and healthily for the good of her health and nothing more. I have suffered with eating disorders. I am recovered but I remain overweight. My eds were about finding safety and gaining control over a body that i felt betrayed me when I was raped and abused. My weight falls away slowly because I want to be healthy, have towels that wrap round me well and be able to be more active.<br /><br />The most life changing occurances for me have been in my attitude, my steadily growing self confidence, self esteem and a sense of self worth that was beaten away so long ago.<br /><br />The point of this long-winded comment? To congratulate you - not on your weight loss, but on your attitude, your focus and your goals. To encourage you to continue focusing on that self development and to tell you that you have encouraged and inspired me. You my love are fabulous - no ifs no buts no deflections. Just take that word and absorb it - because its true.<br /><br />With love and hugs<br />a random english stranger - Tracey xxxwerfreedomfightershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07486429187067674095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887701053197945139.post-4939746409800536882011-08-03T22:17:25.286-05:002011-08-03T22:17:25.286-05:00In order to get a feel for your effectiveness, you...In order to get a feel for your effectiveness, you may want to check out the work of Scott Miller and Michael Lambert.

If I ever were in charge, I'd probably make it like a middle-school style slumber party, with makeovers and watching sappy romantic movies and playing truth or dare or something. I mean, after you're married, when is the next time you'll be able to do something like that with your girlfriends?<br /><br />In unrelated news, I was wondering if you accepted guest posts...

Mostly to avoid going around the city, being degraded by my friends. :/ They accused me of not being funny but I honestly just want to spend time with them, have a couple of drinks, play silly games and relax.<br />The bad thing is that they will probably make it into something very sexualised and very drunken party.<br />Ah well.. I'll survive I hope! I did let them know what I want/don't want so hopefully they will come up with some awesome things. :)<br /><br />NadjaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887701053197945139.post-35769975718646391192011-04-12T09:16:28.163-05:002011-04-12T09:16:28.163-05:00Then I vote for some kind of very silly theme part...Then I vote for some kind of very silly theme party (famous brides from the bible; everyone wear their wedding dress (assuming there are lots of married ladies) or everyone come as their favourite ?????)

I honestly don't know if I could do it. The one batchelorette party I've done so far and the one coming are both going to be at my aunt's place.<br />SO yeah. Mostly I'm just sympathizing, I guess. I can't imagine how stressed out I would be about something like that. She's definitely determined to have the whole cliche drinking, dancing, falling into male strippers laps kind of party? You couldn't like.... dress up in feather boas and 80's clothes and go roller skating or bowling or something kind of goofy? Scavenger hunt? Stupid overnight games like truth or dare? <br />Sigh. Like you said, it's not about you and if that's what she wants... man that's complicated. I hope you figure something out. <3BethanyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07223788586397870850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1887701053197945139.post-48781605044877197742011-04-01T12:39:30.545-05:002011-04-01T12:39:30.545-05:00Hey, you can email me anytime, you know.
