Weight Loss

One does not see the slow change. It just becomes something you just see every day in the mirror. I am me...there is no change.
However, the picture from 2013 popped up in my memories on Facebook one day. I could hardly even look at it because I was so disgusted with myself. How the hell did I let myself become so big? How could I be that big and not even notice? How could Greg even stand to look at me? You know, all of the things you ask yourself that make you question your self worth. I quickly scrolled past the picture and went to look at other memories. I found myself drawn back to this stupid picture. I asked Greg how I had never noticed myself at that size. He said he never even noticed (typical!) He reassured me that I was nothing close to that size. Self doubt, I went to the bathroom and took a picture of myself then and there. I put the pictures side by side...and to my amazement, I was not even close to that size any more!!
Now, I know I still have a long ways to go (probably should give up going to Dutch Bros every morning for coffee) but I have come so far. I have to remember to keep my head up and focus on the progress I've made and not how far I have to go.
