Will we ever shake the weight in our hearts?

I can relate to not feeling like a woman anymore. Mostly of my clothing are black and no style. I do not wear make up, have manicures and my hair look so bad lately. Being fat took way a lot from me. However, I am on the right pass and soon I will reconnect with this beautiful, pretty, charming and sexy Brazilian woman hiding inside me. Can you hear my accent? Pardon but English is my second language!

As I lost weight, I began connecting with my self again.  I don't know about how I portray my personality differently on the outside but my inside feeling is I just love the new me.  I want to nurture myself and I value myself more.  I want to take care of myself and look the best I can--just for me.  I hope you find this true for yourself.  Lin

Thanks Lin. I hope that ends up true for me too. :) 

What a great post!
I can so relate. I often would think, what happened?
I used to take such good care of myself and my looks, what happened?
It seems like now that I have taken this step to take care of my health that the idea of becoming feminine again is a reality.
