Today I glanced in the mirror and it suddenly hit...I am ONE SEXY WOMAN !!! Not JUST because I am loosing weight and seeing a more defined body, but because everyday I am finding out the strength I have in such a trying time.
I am amazed at the leaps and bounds I have made at being a survivor...and even though there are times where I throw a fit because life just isn't fair...I know that I am still a better person than I was a year ago and even a week ago. My weight loss for me is a symbol of shedding some much negative energy that I have been carrying around about myself. With every inch I loose, or for every pound I shed, or for every muscle I gain, I realize that I am loosing: self-hatred, self-doubt, feelings of not being good enough, pretty enough, or smart enough, and at the same time I am gaining strength.
I am also feeling free from the prison of food. I am so dedicated to taking care of my body and am so freaking proud of myself for putting my health first and not "dating" my food. I finally feel like a true single woman! I am also trying to not worship my scale either because I know that in the process of dieting that weight can go up and down, so I don't need to punish myself with insane calorie restrictions.
I now realize that taking care of my body is really what makes me feel beautiful even though I'm about 35 pounds away from my goal. I am now planning on celebrating life instead of re-living past regret!!!!
