Wanted to share a blog post

I had several people ask me to share this. I think it resonated with so many that are having a hard time forgiving the fat girl....

Thank you for sharing.  It reminds me that I don't have to look in the mirror and still she the "Fat Girl".  In the OH Magezine this month, someone shared "My perception of my body is distorted.  When I hold up a pair of size six jeams, i think 'wow, those are hugh' or 'gosh, my thighs look so big still'.  I'm not sure when you get to the point that you see the correctly sized person that you truly are. - shammy"  I can relate to that - even though I have hit my goal and wear that size six, sometimes I still see the Fat Girl; instead of the Beautful Woman God has given me.  That is when I have to read my daily gratitude list and remind myself of what I have been given, a NEW me.

There's also a little article in this month's magazine that I wrote too!

I so know exactly what you mean about there being days where I feel like I'm fat. I have to tell myself..."what am I thinking???".  It's crazy sometimes but this is the part where we put things in perspective to bring us back to sanity. It's funny.... I wish there were a time machine to put us back in our obese bodies for a month just to remind us what we escaped.  It is so important to never forget where we came from.  Great post sweetie.
Hugs, Y
