A breakthrough
So the other night, I was talking to my boyfriend in the UK and snapping some photos for him (cause he digs that) and while browsing the photos later myself, I had this realization.
I may be overweight, but I am loving my body more and more. In fact, I even called myself beautiful (which of course he agreed with, gotta love that!). It's the most amazing thing because I've been this weight before, in fact, the weight I am at now was once the highest I ever got and depressed me. I starved myself and worked out at the gym even more because I hated myself for getting fat. I never could lose weight so I hated my body and thought it was the worst body ever. It's amazing how things have changed.
Now, I'm so happy to be this weight. I know I have a way to go, but that's ok. This body is mine and I love it, completely and totally. I am happy in my mind and body. I'm no longer obsessing about losing weight. I'm more obsessed with eating well, feeling good and being happy. The weight coming off is just a bonus. It's so wonderful.
I swear, being on atkins has done more than just help me shed inches and pounds. It's completely transformed my life in every way imaginable.
My boyfriend is amazing too and if I get excited about losing or not or whatever, he's happy because I am happy. In fact, he even said he didn't care what weight I was as long as I don't lose my lovely curves (sooo awesome). He's supportive of my WOL all the way because it makes me so happy. In fact, when he gets here this fall, he can't wait to eat the way I do because I'm so incredibly happy and have energy all the time.
anyone else experience something like this?
