I have had a really steady couple of weeks.
Insanity is over and after a few days rest, I missed it so I've started the 30 Day shred and I'm really enjoying it.
Today I got to thinking about my old eating habits and my new ones.
In the past I ate and ate and ate,
I never really felt full, never satisfied.
I didn't really enjoy the food I ate, I just pushed it in.
I didn't have any self esteem, nor pride in myself.
I was very unhappy. Food, eating and exercise choices made me really unhappy
Now I eat a careful diet and a narrow range of foods
I am often hungry but I really enjoy the taste of the food I do eat.
I feel satisfied with my food choices, I know when I have eaten enough and I stop.
I feel younger, and fitter and more attractive than I can ever remember feeling.
I am happy, really happy. Food, eating and exercise choicex are making me really happy
Why did I ever live like that?
I chose it, I cannot blame anyone but myself however, I changed it and I can't give anyone else the credit for all those changes.
Make those changes and get to the good place, you won't regret it. One day at a time, one day nearer where you want to be.
Just keep moving in the right direction and you will get there

I love this! It is all so true.
I have friends who declare that they could never lose the weight because they love food too much. I say now that the weight is gone and the foods are more real, I enjoy food more than ever!
Words spoken to my own self before... so very true! Dawn, I have read several posts from your blog and have really enjoyed them. You have a lovely blog and I like your philosophy on getting healthy again. Best wishes and keep up the great work!

Sorry I've been AWOL, Dawn - just catching up on your blog. I'm excited to hear the excitement in your writing - blushing and enjoying conversations with men, and RUNNING! Awesome! Good for you!

Great post! I'm glad you're doing so well. You're an inspiration. And thank you for your comment a couple weeks ago, it stuck in my head and really motivated me. Thank you, thank you :)
I'm really happy to hear that you are doing so well :)
I know when I was gaining weight, I never really enjoyed the food that I was eating. It was just a diversional activity. Glad you're doing well.
