I feel so guilty because I am a nurse who takes care of others but unable to care for myself. I must start taking the time to exercise and do it without feeling guilt towards my family responsibilities. I am going to start today keeping a food journal and include in it "good self talk"....I need some support to help me through this process. Who wants to be my cheerleader?

This is good example of postitive self talk. If you tell it to yourself often enough you will begin to believe it which will boost your self-esteem. You must love yourself if you expect others to love you.
