Seeing that post this morning triggered some memories of my own.

Silence is what sexual predators count on. Talk to a lawyer as to any legal options that might still be open to you. And I'd also be honest with your dad. You will forever regret it if he goes to his grave not knowing. And it should be you that tells him. Nobody else.

I watched a program the other day about rape.

I'm sorry. I really mean that. I. Am. Sorry. You are right; there was nothing you could do to stop it. Now here this: it was not your fault. Not even 0.0001%. Now repeat that. Out loud. It was not your fault. ****Rape is not about ***sex. It is about power. All he wanted was to have power over you. I hope someday you can forgive yourself --- that is important. Screw him. He does not deserve your forgiveness. You do.
If you need help finding that place in your heart please seek some counseling. Or if you will allow us, we can help you. We may not be the best, but we are by far the cheapest.
NOW go back and reread the beginning of this reply. You really need to hear it over and over.
We care about you.

The reason the vast majority of diets fail is simple. Diet is a four letter word. A mantra to do for 5-6 months (maybe) and then go back to the same thing you are doing now. Hoping that for some miraculous reason you'll stay fit. Wrong. This is an entire lifestyle change that you can get behind on a permanent basis.
Do you like to read? Get a copy of Dr. Phil's book, the 20/20 Diet. The Kindle version is by far the cheapest.

Make some flash cards; 10 to 15 should do. Write on them your personal goals of this endeavor and how you going to reach these goals. Be specific but be honest. No, you will never look like Fabio in the ads from '95. On other cards put on there who you are doing this for. Lastly you want to list rewards, what you can give to yourself for reaching some of the goals you have set. Label the set of cards, baby steps. Before anything in any food group touches your mouth you must read every word on every card. No cheating! After reading the entire set, ask yourself one simple question: Does this meal/cocktail/snack help in reaching my goal? If the answer is no, you can not partake of that item. Physically walk it over to your trash and dispose of it. Part of that is psychological. You must witness yourself throwing it away even though it is something you really crave. Every 2 months you can update any of the cards you wish. Lastly, throw away the bathroom scale. It can only provide you a vague number of how much gravity is pulling in one direction. A certain weight is not a goal. Being in shape is how you physically feel. Meditate and exercise as often as you like.

Baby steps... Remember that.
