I just got a new therapist and I have only seen him a couple of times but he is helping me so much. My old therapist would listen and give suggestions and encourage me. But my new therapist is tough! He listens to me and tells me what I have to do and makes me accountable to him. He doesn't just hope I follow his advise but he expects me to follow his instruction and no excuses--I am to follow his instructions and that is that!
I was kind of in shock the first time but now I am realizing this is exactly the kind of therapy I need.

I had a therepist once that was alot like that. I was actually there for marriage counseling. I had a cheater husband and I was telling him about it and he called my a liar. What he meant was that i kept telling my husband if he cheats again we are done, but i always took him back. So the therapist said your the liar why would he stop cheating when you don't ever do what you threaten to. Very eye opening. I had to start taking responsibility for my life and decisions and stop playing victum role. it helped tremendously. You sound pleased as well. We all need to have someone call us on our shit now and then.

I'd love to have a therapist like that. The to be cruel to be kind approach really is the most sincere form of love and respect. It doesnt sugar coat, it wakes you up. You go girl!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
