I'm a work in progress
Lately I've been doing my own thing. Taking a break from the "social dieting". I felt it was time to get back to the basics. Back to why I decided to change. Although others are helpful. I felt it best to take some time for me.
What I found was remarkable. The thing that keeps me going the most in my new lifestyle. Is.. me. I am my best motivation.
I decided to change from my overeating addictive lifestyle because I didn't want to live that way any longer. I wasn't happy. I couldn't breath. I felt out of control. Its good to remind myself how far I've come. And to be proud of who I am.
I have had the hardest time losing weight in the last 5 months. Part of it, is my motivation was partially my wedding. I didn't even realize how much motivation it was. To be a skinny bride. I was fully devoted to getting to my goals. Now that I've become a healthier weight. I feel good. But.. I know I am still not at the place I desire.
I use to think that was a number. Although the number is important. I have also discovered that the way I view myself needs to change. I don't weigh 204 pounds and I am not that person any more. My insides haven't caught up with the outside.
I'm a work in progress. And I will be that way. For the rest of my life.
What I am learning is to be devoted and hard working, without being too hard on myself. I feel excited for what's to come as I learn & lose all at the same time.
