At first I just wanted to lose inches in my waist (and the extra fat that went with it). That led to a desire to be stronger and more capable. As my strength has grown and I have moved forward, I've come to realize that there is no destination on this journey. I will never arrive. When my body is closer to functioning the healthy way that I deserve, I'll just have new goals replacing the old ones. When my life rocks, I'll want to share it with others...there will always be not-yet-completed goals
Like a lot of women, I tend to have little demon tapes that whisper, "you'll be lovable when you are xxx pounds" or in "a perfect body". What would happen if I loved myself today the way these conditional love tapes say I would when I'm at my current goal's completion? What would have to change in my life? Would I do things differently? Make different choices? Just wondering...

At the risk of repeating myself..."You Rock".... Just so you know!!!!!
We are not defined by the job we do....it's what we do, not who we are... In the same way, we can't define ourselves by the amount of weight we carry....It's excess weight... not who we are...If we feel unlovable at 500lbs...we will still feel unlovable at 120 lbs.. we all hide behind the facade that one day when we have reached our goal, our lives will be perfect, we will magically have everything our hearts desire..Strive each day to love who you are...appreciate your strengths...work on your weaknesses.....Today is the first day of the rest of your life... choose well my friend
