February 19, 2009

People keep asking me if I am excited. I am excited ... but I am nervous too. I am ready to move on to a healthier me, but the changes that I am going to be moving on to are quite overwhelming. I am incredibly thankful for all of the support and prayers that I have received from so many.

Over the past twenty years or so I have often felt judged for struggling with my weight. It is a struggle that one cannot hide. I was wrong for turning to food for comfort. I wish I would have chosen to turn to God and work through the emotional issues that were in front of me. Although, jokes or movies that make fun of fat people hurt me, no one could make me feel more shame than myself. However, this is a time for me to move on. I am no longer beating myself up. We have a forgiving God and I am so grateful! :)
