The Truth Is...

The truth is that I have about 15 pounds to lose.
The truth is that I love unhealthy food so keeping myself away from it is soooo hard.
The truth is that I also love healthy food, so that is a plus.
The truth is that I haven't felt comfortable in my own skin in a LONG time.
The truth is that I tend to say to myself "diet starts tomorrow"
The truth is that I can't imagine myself actually losing weight, and I think thats the problem.
The truth is that I get really jealous of those who have never had to struggle with their weight.
The truth is that I do love my curves and I wouldn't want to lose them.  I just want to slim a bit.
The truth is that I run 12-15 miles each week, you would think that I would be a lot thinner.
The truth is that I know my husband loves me for exactly who I am, so why do I even worry?
The truth is that I always think "well, when I finally lose the weight then I'll do _____ or go ____"
The truth is that I can't stand when people label others as skinny or fat, why not as smart, or kind, or beautiful?
The truth is that I HATE thinking this way.  I want to just worry about being healthy and not about how much weight I need to lose all the time.
The truth is that I need to change my mindset.  Here is to thinking healthy and not being fixated on the number on the scale.

  2. I don't know why it's so hard for us to see ourselves for how beautiful we already are. It's hard when the world tells us that we are fat and ugly unless we wear certain styles or look a certain way. Changing your mindset is hard. I hope its possible though :) You are beautiful Whitney! I know you need to feel it for yourself but I just want you to know that I think you are. Keep up the good work and don't beat yourself up if you have a bad day. We all have the good and the bad.
