So I just read a blog that I have been following on the sly (cyber stalking would be a good term) and a woman who I relate with a LOT has revealed that she has gained back a lot of the weight she took off. And my heart bleeds for her. Because I have done that. I have been there. I could be there any second. I am heading there right now.
When you are a larger person, it takes a lot to lose weight. And it takes even more to keep it off. And if you give up the diligence, the tracking, the paying attention, the staying aware for a split second, you lose focus and you fall off the rope. And it is so. hard. to. get. back. on.
I am off the rope. But I am going to get back on.
I have a relay race this weekend. It is scaring the living crap out of me. So I have been shutting down, getting stressed, and eating. I commit to stopping that. I commit to getting out of here in the next 30 minutes and going to the gym. I commit to changing my life, filling my needs and not my stomach, and changing my life. I commit to looking and feeling good. And I commit to me. I am worth it. I can do it. I want to do it.
It's just that sometimes its so much. It's exhausting.
but that's OK. I can do it. I want to do it. I will do it.
Here's to you, Morgan. You are beautiful. Thank you for the reminder.
