Tammi's Fat Solution

by Tammi
(Iowa)

My solution to the problem of being a little overweight is to look around and see that nobody is perfect. I look at myself in the mirror and find what I don't like immediately, then I look closer and notice the things I do like.

I then am able to like myself more the way I am, and that gives me the ability to go out and do what I want, even if it means wearing a bathing suit. When I get out and start moving I get some exercise and I am not sitting at home eating because I am bored. I effectively cut back on my calories, add excrcise, and boost my self esteem.
