I’m back ya’ll!
And guess what?
I’m still fat.
I’m also still awesome so quit getting your knickers in a twist regarding my self esteem.
I mean, yeah, I never actually left but apparently it’s been like 8 months since I had a coherent thought. Time flies friends.
Basically the longer I went without posting, the easier it was to stay away. I felt like every time I sat down to write, I could only come up with this.
Still trying. Succeeding often. Failing often.
It helps me to remember that if losing weight was easy, Slimfast would be out of business and women’s magazine would have nothing to publish other than ridiculously complicated recipes to make Easter baskets out of fruit roll ups.
I won’t offer you any excuses because I don’t play that game but permit me a small explanation of sorts.
Have you ever tackled a big job like reorganizing your closet and then ended up sidetracked by a smaller job like cleaning every corner of your closet with a magic eraser? No? Just me then?
Well that’s metaphorically what’s been happening to me. I set this big goal. And as I began to take the steps to achieve it I encountered all this stuff along the way. And yes these things were distractions but they were also necessary roadblocks. I have learned a lot about why I do the things I do. I have changed some behavior that I thought would always be a struggle for me. I have cataloged all the lies I tell myself ( the list is long people). And let me tell you, the closet may still be a big ole mess, but one corner of it is spotless.
