So today I wanted to write about the struggles I have faced emotionally during my weight loss journey. Over 17 years ago, when I was a teenager, I decided to lose weight so I could please others, mainly my family and friends. I lost the weight within a year, which most people say is a healthy amount of time, and I was so sure that everyone would love me because I was thin. Well I did not count on the fact that I really did not like who I had become. I was consumed by weight loss and pleasing others that I did not know who I was. I became depressed and gained the weight back, plus gained 30 lbs more. Years flew by, and by the time I graduated college, this year, I decided to lose weight for me and not others. My weight loss started because I thought it would help me with some health issues I was facing, back pain and depression, but as time went by I started to love the challenge of learning how to eat properly and the fun of exercising (even when it makes me tired and sweaty). I am not trying to please others, but take care of my health and well-being. Maybe it is because age is bringing wisdom along for the ride or if it is reading the wonderful advice and journals on Fat Secret, but I am learning now to like myself for who I am than define myself by weight. Now I am not saying I do not get upset if the scale shows my weight is going up, but I am not defined by it. I know I am a woman who is struggling to lose the last 40 lbs, but I am also shy, sensitive, fun-loving, always ready with a joke or goofy song to make someone laugh, and determined to lose the weight for no one else but me. ❤
