Comments about this conversation:
Deborah RiveT: "After listening to this I felt so motivated to evalaute my life-style and body image, self esteem issues and motivation to take some steps to engage in my self, beliefs and negative issues that prevent contentment."
Lesley Rulli: "Thank so much for your words of wisdom. I have struggled with weight issues for many years. I have many sizes of clothing in my closet. I never stopped to think how my negative self image would affect my teenaged daughter. Now when I think back about comments I have made about myself in front of my daughter, I see how it affects her in a negative way. I plan to put your words into action. Thanks for the great suggestions. I do not want my daughter to struggle as I have with a negative self image."
