I never, ever want to medicate myself with food again. I never want to shut out the world, and relationships and love again. I never want to bury my feelings in my refrigerator again. That's how I stay motivated. This journey is full of frustration, unfortunately.
Bad things happen.
You have to keep going, even when you think you can't. You know, it's really funny. I don't have any one thing that I can point to, the way others can. There was no one comment, one person or one moment that kicked me into gear. I remember clearly about two years before I started losing weight.
