learning to love

Weight??


I did it! I finally lost the 10 pounds i have been trying to get off since..umm january!

My picture of the day today is celebrating all of those poeple who have set goals and accomplished them, who made themselves healthy by being determined. If you know me, you know that my entire life i didnt struggle with weight, instead i struggled with health. I have been to more doctors than anyone ever should at my age and i swear i have spent more than half of my life in bathrooms. I joined weight watchers last winter not necessarly to loose a ton of weight but for 2 other reasons. 1. STOP GAINING! i was very quickly increasing and i HAD to catch it before it got out of control and 2. To get off my stomach medicines and be healthy, finally. I did it! I went to the doctor in april, the day before my birthday and had the pleasure of telling my doc. that I will NOT be refilling any of the many medications i was previously taking! YAY! It is no september and i have been "drug free" for 6 months and counting. And now that my 10lbs are gone, i feel better then ever... well most days. I still have my moments (like this morning) but i now feel like a normal person who gets normal stomach aches. Anyways, that is my picture today. Good for you if you can learn to live with and love the bady god gave you and please take care of it!

Aw a tummy love picture!!! I did one of those a while back...My tummy has changed a lot since, I should take another. Funny that you posted this and I saw it now cause I looked in the mirror at myself today and I actually thought to myself "Wow. I like the way my stomach looks. I love the curves I have." which is a thought I have NEVER come across before. I've gotten control of what was making me gain weight and it feels empowering. :oD
