Scared of Ruby

The television reality show Ruby scares me. This woman has so much courage and bravery, so much support from friends, a team of people supporting her (nutritionist, therapist, psychologist, two trainers) and a nation (okay, maybe 1/8 of a nation) watching her journey. She used to weigh 700 pounds and has lost more than half that. So what's scary? She gained weight on hiatus! What? How? With all that going for her, how can she not be successful? Without all that going for me, how can I be successful? That's what scares me.

  2. i know how your feeling, i was on ww for almost a year lost 10 gained it back lost it again. working third shift has some good points but weight loss isn't one of them. so i'm trying something different, not sure where it will take me but, still going to be a battle. I think even tho she has all the extra help, we can also loose. we just have to get it in our minds that healthy eating for a lifetime will work. I'll let you know how i do this week.....it's not going to be easy but the resultsm, eventually, will be worth it....hugs to you! Deb
