I'm waiting to post about weight loss when I've gotten more time and pounds under my belt, but I wanted to tell about this success.
I've spent my entire life second guessing myself. I've suffered from low self-esteem and many other effects stemming from verbal abuse.
Most times, here's what happens...
Friend: Have you lost weight? You're looking really good.
Me: Well, yeah, a little. (I'm ashamed. I hate that you noticed, but I'm glad you did at the same time.)
Now!
Friend: Are you losing weight?
Me: AS A MATTER OF FACT, I AM!!!!
I'm much more confident in myself and in what I'm doing. I felt that switch in late December. It feels great.
Progress, not perfection.
