I have heard it all. You will lose weight as you progress through the steps. Do the food and it will come.

But what do I do when I am on step two and at my highest weight ever? When I see images of myself, reflections or photos I am disgusted. I am appalled at the amount of extra weight I am carrying. I do not feel good about that image and the possible medical problems it could be causing.

My feet hurt. My back hurts. I have trouble sleeping. What can I do now?

I am trying to take my time through the steps this time as it is my third time trying to get past Step Two. But I feel so discouraged about myself right now.

I know there is wisdom here. Can someone please calm my anxious feelings?
