Grateful Heart

Sep 13, 2012

I started this journey a year ago weighing an obsessive amount of weight. 356 pounds to be exact. Food has been my friend, my counselor, my therapist and even at times it was my God. Life threw so many obstacles, challenges and road blocks my way, that at times I lost the will to live. But through much prayer, determination, and support from my dear mother. I decided that I shall live and not die.  My first step was to learn to love/ like me no matter the state that I was in. Then I had to change my stinking thinking. I had to lose weight in my mind. And now 1 year later I am on a road to a full recovery. Losing 178 pounds, literally half of me.  I eat to live now. I like me. I love me. I celebrate me. And because God has allowed me to go through and make it out, I make it my business to share with other women. I love on them. Offer a kind word. I hug and embrace them. Visit with them. Somebody did it for me.  I LOVE BEING ME!!!
