Questions to answer for yourself...

I had these Questions in my on-line journal and today I decided to answer them for myself (in my "off-line journal" so I could be painfully honest with myself). I found the questions to be very enlightening and thought some of you might too! I took them from an ediets article titled: The Most Important Weight Loss Tool By Dr. Matthew Anderson "Question: What is the single most important tool for successful weight loss? Answer: YOU Knowledge about yourself is the secret factor that is most often left out of diet programs." He suggests that you try answering the questions below for yourself... "Try answering the questions below. They will move you in the right direction. Weight-Related Self-Knowledge Questions. What is my greatest inner hunger other than food? What major life risk have I been unwilling to take? What intense feelings most influence my overeating? What am I willing to do to learn about and productively manage those feelings? What childhood trauma is still affecting my emotions, eating habits and self-image? To what degree do I still fear growing up? How often do I blame others for my current life situation instead of taking responsibility for my choices? How does my weight help me hide from life?"

Excellent!
