It's important to focus on the good in life and appreciate it.

You can rescue yourself. No matter how you feel, no matter what you believe about your worth or your capacity to love and be loved, you can change.

What you pay attention to grows. Pay attention to your loveliness, your magnificent self. Begin now.

Hell is wanting to be somewhere different from where you are.

Ask yourself if you are in this for the long run-if it's only your weight you want to change or if you are willing to use your eating patterns as a portal to the inner universe. And if the answer is the latter, then there is no end to what you can learn, be, understand, become.

The way we do anything is the way we do everything. The way we eat is the way we live.
