This does not define me. I am beautiful no matter what. This is my numerical relationship with gravity. Nothing else."<br /><br />I read it now and then when I become too obsessed with my perceived failures. We need to know that we aren't alone in stopping and starting. I don't want to feel like I'm the only one who has all of this great momentum and then loses it all and eats every emotion that comes up. I still look up to you and think you are an inspiration because you haven't given up!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13113577557080596036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956766228449089546.post-60666552929434878972017-02-22T17:51:42.625-05:002017-02-22T17:51:42.625-05:00This will be a lifelong process.

I love re...You are not your weight loss...or gain. I love reading what you have to say because I love the way you say it, and any motivation I've ever gotten from it is just a bonus. You're amazing and I've thought that at whatever weight you've ever been. Losing weight can be a good thing but I've seen so many people affected (me included) by the darkness that can come with it--by the part of the weight loss that makes you feel like THAT is what makes you worthy. At my heaviest I had to look for other things to feel good about, but when I lost a bunch of weight it's like I forgot those things and being the size I was turned into the only thing I liked about myself. And then gaining it back...it's tough. I get it. And that's not to say that weight loss is a bad thing, but I know for me I have to be very careful to do it in a positive health centered way or it can turn into a darkness into my life instead of a light. Anyway, I love you and think you are amazing and I will always be cheering you on in whatever journey you are on...weight loss, self acceptance, happiness...whatever it is that you need for yourself. Much love.
