Watch the video to see the entire story....I have found that sometimes I look in the mirror and I don't see me for who I really am. Sometimes I see the old me!!! The me that weighed 320 lbs!!! That is crazy!!
Even though I don't completely understand why, I just know it is a reality for me and I am learning to overcome a poor self image and see myself for who I have become and even go further and see myself for who I will be in the future. The future me is who I really am.....who I was created to be.....
I was created in the very image of God....and any downfalls I have had or have currently are just temporary. My poor self image can be the negative side of weight loss only if I let it!!!!!
I refuse to let it! I choose to see myself correctly. In order to do this, I had to overcome a silly fear I had and try on my size 26 pants......I didn't want to...I had to work up to it. For three weeks, I thought about trying my old jeans on, but I finally did and guess what? I can fit in one leg of my old jeans...That is incredible!!! Even though logic says I currently wear a size 6 and I wouldn't fit into a size 26, I was still gripped with fear of my past issues......That seems so silly, but fear is silly....We just have to face it and go ahead and do whatever it is that is haunting us.....
I encourage you to face whatever negative is haunting you. There can always be a negative trying to ruin your positive.......but with God you can face it and get rid of it and live in peace.....
Have a great day..
I love you,
