110 pounds

 Dog food came today and I remembered the day last year I had released 55lbs and had Josh  take a picture of me holding one bag. In Feb 2018 I hit the -100lb mark and have released 10lbs more since for a total of 110lbs. So naturally when I saw the two 55lb bags I wanted a picture. Josh was against it not wanting me to hurt myself but carefully helped me as my point was to show how the 110lbs would effect anyone carrying that around. In just the seconds of him taking these few pictures with me holding this extra 110lbs, my body shook with the weight on me and I got super emotional thinking of all those years that I carried an extra 110lbs on my body. The 110lbs I carried for years around my organs and joints, effecting my ability to breathe, to run and play with my kids, to sit in a swing, to even getting up from the couch, etc. that I couldn't just set down when it hurt. Crying as I told my body how sorry I was, for the weight and for blaming my body for it instead of being so amazed at all it did for me, and that I am so proud of my body and what it carried all those years.

***If you are carrying any extra weight I want you right now to thank your body! Seriously, stop what you are doing, look at your body and thank your body and tell it how strong it is. Tell your legs how freaking amazing they are for holding up all that weight! For everyone else that doesn't have excess weight, stop what you are doing and do the same. Tell your body how amazing it is and how strong it is.***
