(This picture is me with my oldest son, 14 y/o, taken mid October, 2015)
I haven't blogged much lately, mostly because I've been so consumed with my work (I sell Pure Romance) and juggling family holidays and my boys. Oh... my boys have been really getting a lot of my time and attention lately... for good and not-so-good reasons. Regardless - I continued to weigh myself on a regular basis... every tuesday, however I'm changing my day to mondays.
Just recently, we had some family pictures taken and I still can't see a difference in my body. I know that may come across vain, maybe, or low on the self-esteem scale...but I don't care how it seems. I WISH I could see a change in my body. As of today I've lost 91 pounds.
9 1 Pounds!!
I can't believe that number. I weigh a good amount less than my husband, which was one of my goals. However, I don't feel smaller than him. I don't feel as though I look any different. How long will I feel like the fat girl? Will I be super skinny someday down the road and still feel like the fat girl? I understand that's a state of mind and it's been IN my mind for so many years, it'll take time to change that way of thinking. But how much time?? What do I have to do to move toward that positive thinking? I don't know, I just hope I get there soon.
On a good note, my doctors are working together to make med changes with my bipolar/depression/anxiety and I've actually been feeling a stitch better. I am hopeful for things, I look forward to things... I still have severe bouts of sadness, darkness and heaviness but not nearly as often. So I'm happy to say that my med changes are working.
Long post made shorter - I'm down 91 lbs, I still feel the same physically but I'm a bit better mentally.
I love all my friends and family...
thank you for your support and kindness!!
**CORRECTION**
I DO see a difference in pictures, so I may need to take more photos so I can see what everyone else sees. Until I believe it, I'll just look at this....
