Continual Learning.........

Jan 09, 2011

Everyday I tell myself it is a new life. Learning something new about myself, but old habits
are hard to break. The worrying about what happens when it comes back on, the weight that
is? What am I doing getting rid of my fat clothes? I won't have anything to wear.

This is the second time I have gone through my closet but I still get a feeling of panic that I am
giving away clothes I will need when I put the weight back on.
It is the old way of thinking. All of the diets I have been on and the regains I have endured. There is
no longer "tomorrow" or "Monday" for dieting. I gave up dieting when I had my surgery. Instead it is a
way of life and healthy eating. Incorporating. exercise into my regime has gone well but it is this hurdle that
I can't seem to let go of.
I have 4 large trash bags ready to go to Goodwill and the rest I have on EBay. I guess each day it will get better
I have to give myself time.

It has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. I wish I had done it years ago. After all as I look down I
am reminded of my success as i see myself wearing a pair of Levi's that have had the tags on them for over 8 years
They fit great!!
