Life of The Morbidly Obese

You are deep... i'm so impressed.

Thank you.  Thank you very much.

I can't wait to have that in a distant memory.  From reading all your posts/threads, I know you have worked very hard to be where you are, of course like many but wow, I can't wait...patience I have, not worried...lol

Some of that stuff does ring true but I'm a weird lady...lol..and please noone take this personnaly, I'm just saying this regarding myself, but I have no self-pity.  If I lived through anything negative that come out of gaining ALL this weight, it was my doing.  It was my decision to give myself this disease or these bad habits.  For once in my life, I took full responsiblity of my doings, eating until midnight then going directly to bed, not even thinking for a second that I might not even wake up. man oh man the things we do!  but then I turn to the positive and see that everything I am going through is to make me a better person in different ways, if that makes any sense.

My husband is out of town for work and as we were on the phone last night, he asked if I had any regrets...and then I remembered your quote that you gave me permission to post on my website...lol...he knows that I had a bad week, Monday was in the washroom at work for 8 hours, threw up 3 times.  I think it had to do with some questionable chicken and not actually dumping but I just replied to him: "You know what? Worst comes to worst and would plateau for the rest of my life, I can now breathe vs to when I was 425, I'm way better then before"

So, regrets?  You already know the answer...lol

I realized yesterday that I'm a few pounds over my halfway mark of my personal weight lost goal....I'm getting there!!  yay! lol

Thanks for reading...lol
Nathalie


ok, enough of this novel...lol...I have to work (yeah right uh? )

You're not weird.  Or maybe you are and I am too. LOL

I agree with you.  I have no self-pity either. I take full responsibility for my life before, my life now, and the work that it took to get here - and stay here.

I forgot about that quote you used - I'm still honoured. :)

No self pity here either.Just a realization that i was irresponsible to myself for a very very long time. I'm happy to be where i am now.


Yay for you, Nathalie!!! congrats on making it to the halfway mark!!

Thank you for this. I'm only starting my journey. This reflection will help and sustain me as I get closer to beginning my new life.

Wow, that's powerful. I will save it for sure. Thanks for posting.

Joyce - thanks!  It covers so much!
