This is a great thread!! Do you realize how many positive statements are here for those like me who are big and getting frustrated with losing weight?

I loved this comment by Kristine "I do not believe in the myth of the magic thin person who eats whatever they want." I one of those who really believed that myth!
BW had another one "I think Americans are becoming accustomed to larger and larger portions, and have come to think they are actually entitled to them." Entitled is the perfect word.

Its all these mind traps that hold us back. Seeing those mind traps makes us more optomistic and less stressful about our weight lose. Thank you all for sharing this!!
