WAAAH! My comments didn't show up on the weighing-in page. And I said nice things! Because I love you!

Isn't anyone going to tell a secret? Okay, I will. When I was young and wild, I had sex with strangers. And once I smoked heroin. I think that's worse than being overweight.

I'm so proud of you for doing something that will make you feel good about yourself!

My secret? I'm a slob. I'm working on it.

Came over from CPA Mom.
Since I posted my weight on my site- it's no big secret any more.
I have seven tattoos.

Angie. You just became so much more real to me. Someone I like and admire and look up to. Let me know if there's any way at all I can lend support.

I pick my nose.

Angie, we love and support you . I have your secret plus ... I used to forge absence notes in High School and then went to Great Falls with a boyfriend. I never got caught and did not do it too often but I did it a few times each spring.
I think you are too hard on yourself. Anyone who knows you knows how lucky Steven really is.
Do not ever doubt your self worth .

I too think you are being way too hard on yourself. You seem like such a wonderful person from your blog, everyone has things about themselves they are unhappy about.
My secret - we are massively in debt, over $150,000 and I don't know what we're going to do. None of my friends and family know how bad it is.It is eating me up day and night, we may lose our house. I may be thin, but I'm in deep shit...

I love you, too, Mary.

But I'm Good Now - You are right, being overweight is not so bad in that context compared to heroin useage. But guess what - there are men who LOVE fat women. When I was single there never was a lack of men wanting to roll around in the sheets with me. I have never compromised my values for men nor sex.

Liz - There was a time when I was a slobbish, too.

Bethany - I have always wanted a tiny tattoo but my little inner voice has always talked me out of it.

Vicki - is there anyone who doesn't? If they say they don't they lie.

The Bee - Oh, the things we all did in high school!

Marcie - Financial burdens are tough. I have been in the position of being so strapped I had no idea how to even feed my kids but somehow I managed. Have you considered credit consolidation with a credit counselor? I hear they can work miracles. If Willie Nelson can get out of debt we all can. Yes?

I admire you for posting your struggles with dieting and your thoughts about weight openly, and I'm sure it helps you stay on track. My secrets? Gah, I have too many to list! Procrastination and laziness are probably two of the worst, though.

You are one of my heroes.

We all have secrets. I'm not brave enough to let it out like you.

I have a tattoo but since I posted about it, it's not really a secret!

My husband was a one night stand gone horribly awry.

Thank so very much, CPAMom. I hope I can succeed and be an inspiration to others.

Mrs. CPA - that is a priceless confession! I love it!
