Wow, today is a milestone day. 

 

Today I've lost 25 pounds. 

 

On the one hand, since it has been coming in bits and pieces, it just feels like another little bit. But when I really step back and think about it.. WOW!! 25 pounds!! That is just amazing.

 

Twenty five pounds of anger. 

Twenty five pounds of fear.

Twenty five pounds of frustration, joy, despair, anxiety.

Twenty five pounds of laughing with friends and enjoying myself, but missing the mark with what I was putting in my body.

 

I'm smack dab in the middle of a personal realization, a transformation of who I am and what I need.

A realization that maybe what I've been told I need, nutritionally and otherwise, may not be what this particular body needs to thrive. We are all unique!

 

I've come a long way and have a distance yet to go.

I. Will. Not. Quit.
