Forgive means to: 1. grant pardon for an
offense ; to absolve; to set free from punishment. 2. to cease to feel
resentment, hatred or dislike towards your body. When you forgive yourself you are
set free to have the body you want rather than being filled with feelings
of resentment, anger, frustration, and anxiety towards your body that keeps the weight on. If you can't forgive yourself for the mistakes you made with your body those 'nasty feelings' about your body will stick to you like SUPER GLUE.
