We dream about what it will be like when we reach the long – awaited goal.Then, at last, we find ourselves there.
But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different.Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self – worth, and, of course, love.
