People-Pleasing and Weight Loss

1. That really was an awesome discussion. I can’t remember the girl’s name, but her mother had said she wouldn’t be able to find a husband. I had a similar experience, except it was from my husband. At 130 pounds, he told me I was fat and that I should run behind the car. I’ve struggled with my weight ever since, mostly hanging out around 180-200 pounds. I know it was my choice to turn to food. With this program, I’ll allow God to help me make better choices. Thank you so much Cathy for creating this program.

   1. You’re so welcome Lorrie. It’s amazing how misguided people can be in their attempt to ‘help’ you. I hope you realize that it’s more about his issues and really had nothing to do with you.

2. thank for this awesome discussion

3. I was certain that was not me… until I heard your example. The rest of the day I came face to face with pleasing people, and failing.

4. I am alway trying to please other people making them happy while I am not. I am a emotional eater junk is my choice of food. I must get a hold of myself do to health reason.

   1. I gain 90 pound in a year in a half because I was emotional eating. I love to see every one around me happy. I am currently putting my health first. I am changing my mindset right now. When I am overwhelmed I would eat food I don’t normally eat. God need me to call him everytime so I don’t won’t go back to what caused my weight gain a few years ago.

      1. Good for you Wisliana,
         Continue to address the root of why you emotionally eat.

   2. Mary, if you could have ‘gotten hold’ of yourself already you would it. It’s time to trust God with this journey.

5. That me

6. I am a people pleaser
