I'm working towards my goal but I don't have much support.

1. My therapist thinks that if I have to diet too much to lose weight then it is not worth the pain and I should just give up. She is not very helpful in rooting me on.

2. I can't tell my father because he doesn't even want to imagine me overweight and he cannot imagine me changing my problems through sheer willpower. He can only imagine things that I have already accomplished. As in he has no imagination at all.

3. Coworkers prefer to just go with the flow: if your body wants you to be thin then be thin, but if your body wants you to be fat then don't fight it. Since I am definitely fighting it, they seem to think I am going too far.

I wish someone would just compliment me on my willpower and lost pounds. Don't I deserve it more since I have a high willpower?
