A Daily Affirmation post.....
I have noticed that with having weight loss surgery it takes us a while mentally to catch up with our body changes. We lose a lot of weight and yet look in the mirror and still not see a major difference in our bodies. When we go shopping for clothes we usually go for the bigger size because we still can't believe that we fit in that smaller size shirt, pants or dress.
Receiving compliments is an issue to some of us too. Lack of self esteem will definitely hamper us from believing what we deserve to know and have. Well, I have been thinking I have never really believed in the compliments that I have received. I thank everyone who does give me a compliment but I have noticed that I will answer something like.....thanks but I still have a long way to go...Thanks, but I wish I was really skinny... Thanks, but... Thanks but..... You get the idea right? Sometimes we don't believe in ourselves enough to make a difference in our own lives.
Before I had surgery I would shy away from the camera, from compliments, from gatherings, from even playing with my own kids because I couldn't do much or I hated the way looked and I didn't want be embarrassed.
I used to have a list of a daily affirmations that I read out loud everyday years ago and it worked great. But somewhere down the line, when I gained weight and things were not going so great in my life I stop reading my list. I lost my perspective on who I am, who I deserve to be and what I deserve to have.
I want to change that and help others that might be dealing with the same issue. I would love to have you join me with a daily affirmation post. All you have to do is post what you deserve, what you are entitled to have, what you are worth and so forth.
I will make my new daily affirmation list to keep in my person and read it daily to myself and I would like for you to do the same. You will see how wonderful you will feel about yourself. You will soon know how much you deserve to have in life and actually believe it.
I hope you will join me by posting a daily affirmation.
I will start today.....
1. I deserve to be happy.
2. When I look in the mirror I see a beautiful healthy woman that has made a major transformation.
Thanks for reading and I hope for you to join me daily!
Hugs,
Cira

Thanks Nicole! 
Your list of affirmations would be for your daily personal reading, but all you would have to do is post one for the day. It will really help us all.
Well, only if you want to join of course.
