Disloyal

Does anyone feel like they are breaking up with themselves? Weird I know! It's safe and familiar to be over weight and down on myself. Being miserable is all I know. But at the same time, I'm so ready to end this abusive relationship with myself! 12/26 is the day!!!!

I had my surgery on 11/5, and I can relate. I don't see it as breaking up with myself; I see it as breaking up with food.... Something that has "comforted" me for years. Now I'm trying other things to comfort me, and it can be hard on some days!

That is a unique viewpoint and worth a philosophical ponder. Hmmmmmm....

I prefer to look at it as nurturing my relationship with self. I'm going to love and care for me.

I feel like i was more disloyal to myself by getting to 349 lbs. I now feel like I'm coming "back to me." I'm feeling like my old self and saying "sorry i let you get like that!"
