I think many of the woman in the Starting Over house are going to continue to have weight issues, because we, as women, are most of the time, (and not all women,) so caught up in how we look, and how that affects who we are on the inside. I wish it wasn't true, but women are hard on each other! I teach high school kids, and I'm already seeing the influence of all these models, tv personalities, etc., and I preach constantly LOOKS don't count--what you are INSIDE--and what you stand for is what really matters. Then--I look at the pictures on the board of myself when I weighed 94 lbs (I'm 5 ft tall) 5 years ago, then discovered I had a HUGE thyroid problem, and now weigh 140. I find myself thinking the same thing--I'm not as good as I was when I was I looked like at 95. By the way, I looked like a Holocaust Survivor at that weight---but you don't notice it yourself! Girls are so very precious--I bet the Starting Over house will always have someone with a weight issue. After all, why do we spend billions of dollars trying to look better?
