568.0. "spring and summer are almost here!" by WAGON::ST_JOHN () Fri Mar 09 1990 14:48

    Spring and summer are coming.   Around this time every year I tell my 
    self it's time to get in gear.  This year I've managed to get myself
    the fattest I've ever been.  Outdoor concerts and pool parties are 
    right around the corner.  I don't want to say this year "oops, I've 
    forgotten my bathing suit" when I know darn well that I planned it
    that way.  I know I can be thin, I can see myself being thin, I've 
    been thin before and I know how good I feel when I'm thin.  I feel 
    entirely different now and I don't like it at all.  I know I can 
    exercise and eat well, it's just a matter of getting started.  Help!

    Hi Jonelle,
    Be encouraged!  There's lots of support out there.  A very helpful file
    is 500 and the replies.  A couple of comments I found valuable were
    these:  are you doing this because you have to or want to?  identifying
    reasons you tend to overeat and attempting to replace those with
    non-food solutions.  I know you can do it.   You'll be thin and feelin'
    soooooooooooo good.  As I write this people are loudly crunching on
    girlscout cookies around me.  You're not alone in the struggle.  Please
    write back to keep in touch.
    Wishing you a successful start this weekend!
