There is nothing wrong with your marriage if you're dealing with bills and kids and the broken garbage disposal and in-laws and work demands. That's a normal marriage.
A lot of people do have tragic childhoods. But you know what? Get over it.
If you want more, you have to require more from yourself.
You can't change what you don't acknowledge.
Take the high road, there's a lot less traffic up there.
Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life.
Happiness isn't a one-size-fits-all proposition. You must define what it looks like for you and then make a conscious effort to access whatever gets you to your unique definition of joy.
You have to name it to claim it
Change can come in either of two important ways: Start behaving positively or stop behaving negatively.
Most choices are driven by immediate results.
Anyone can do something when they want to do it. Really successful people do things when they don't want to do it.
Everybody should have the opportunity to do and be everything they can be.
Life is managed; it is not cured.
Grief is a process to go through, not a destination in which to wallow. In a process, you keep putting one foot in front of the other, and each little step is part of your healing.
