Thread: ****** I Believe I Can Fly ******

Have not posted in weeks. Have been so busy with life and other duties that I just have not had the time. I have kept up with my personal daily journal.
Everything is going good. Food choices are real good. Everyone is starting to ask what is different. First it was my glasses, then my make up, then my clothes. Do you think it is because I have lost 45 pounds? lol
Its no wonder we have issues with food. People around you change. I dont feel like I have changed inward. I feel like the same person and act like the same person. This is the time in my life when I went back to eating all the other times because it was easier to be fat AT TIMES. Physically it wasnt easy and mentally for ME it wasnt easy. But the relationships were different. I need to work on trying to keep the weight off and learning to accept what everyone thinks of me I guess. Try not to take everything personal and I have to accept that I will lose some relationships.
Have been working out at Curves faithfully. Really enjoy the new muscle's I am creating. Physically I feel great..... Mentally - the thought process is quicker.... I have both physical and mental energy 24-7. When I go to bed now I sleep because I am tired. No more of those sleepless nights. I still wake up several times due to age but I go right back to sleep. Its great.

Welcome back! 45lb gone, WOW. That is great. You're doing great. Your DD will be so happy when she sees. Keep up the great work.

Hi Kimberly,

I just got through reading your journal...sounds like you have a lot going on. Keep on trusting the Lord, He knows what He is doing (even though alot of the times, we don't.) Have you ever read Beth Moores book "Breaking Free"? It is awesome, and helped me immensely.

45lbs is awesome. I have lost ~30lbs and can't wait to get the rest off.

God Bless,

Thanks for checking in CrazeeKat and Cindi. Your inspiration and encouragement is great.

Sometimes I go back and read a couple posts and I have noticed I have been complaining. That is so wrong. I have so many things in my life to be thankful for. Like this web site. Meeting everyone has been so great. So many people, different walks of life, different opinions, different faith yet we all come together with the same common issues about Food. What a Blessing......

Today is Monday. The beginning of a new Week. Next week I fly to California for a surprise visit to see Mother for Mother's Day. I will spend 5 days with her. I am looking so forward to getting away from everyday life and seeing my Mom. I will check in before I go. Hope everyone has a great last week of April....
