Last week a friend of mine tagged me in a photo on Facebook that was taken in March of this year. I have to say two things went through my mind when I saw this picture...ok actually 3, the first was WHO IS THIS?, the second was WOW I don't even know her anymore! and the third was embarrassment and shame....how could I of ever let myself get this way? Why did I not realize it? Why did it take me this long to get a grip on my life? Why, Why, Why...but I realized it wasn't why anymore...I have done something about it, I have gotten a grip on my life...for good.
I left the picture up because for me it's a reminder of who I never want to see again. I don't want that person in my life anymore, she stayed to long. But it was also a big encouragement that I have come so far and that I am making a difference in my life for good. Finally! I am only 32 pounds away from my goal. Seems easy in some ways and in others it seems like it's just the same feeling when I started...will I ever get there. 32 is to get my to 'my' goal weight but that doesn't mean I will stop losing weight. 32 will put me in the area that I need to be in. At that point then maintenance and maintaining will begin. Then begins the next step of my journey...the part I'm most excited about, but nervous too. I'm so ready to be where I need to be and see the new me...I can't stand it. :)
Every wrong turn I've made I am correcting in some way...not perfect but I am putting the past in the past and moving forward. So exciting!
