So, I share this picture because when I saw it I realized just how far I have come. I don’t hate this picture. It’s no secret to those who know me that my butt /hips are definitely my biggest areas. Therefore I’ve always avoided pictures taken from behind. And I’ve always been annoyed by anyone who took them. Well, a friend took this picture (and a few others) this weekend and guess what…I don’t hate the picture. I don’t even mind looking at it. This is me! This is the butt and thighs that allowed me to have a wonderful weekend walking to some beautiful falls and enjoying some great company. This butt and those thighs went down a slide for the first time in a very long time. When I saw that the pictures had been taken my first thought was “oh great”. But…then I took a look at them and said ‘so what…its me’.
So, I’ve come a long way on the path to learning to love myself just the way I am. Do I want to make changes…absolutely. But not because I hate myself as I am now.
Weigh-in was today. Up 0.4 pounds. Not bad given that I flew on two flights yesterday, was out of town this weekend and ate out multiple times, and that I had Chinese for dinner last night! I’ll take it.
