Every day I wake up and think about my weight and the words weight loss; the two most guilt imposing and confidence busting words I can think of. I am obsessed with those two words and the implications of their meaning. I have never been heavy, but in the last five years I have gained an astounding 36 pounds. Being only 5-4, I am no longer petite and cute wearing the latest fashions; instead I've become a round person who dresses in black to hide her body. Where the heck did all my curves go? Where did I go?
Well, it doesn't matter how it happened, now it matters that it's time to do something about it. My back hurts from being pulled forward at my pelvis from the extra pounds it has to support, and I'm sluggish, unmotivated and I have a closet full of clothes that don't fit. I've suffered and commiserated along with Oprah, Kirsti, Marie, and now Valerie with her pal Jenny and it all makes sense. It really does, we all have variations of the same story. I get it; I know what I have to do. So what's stopping me? My answers surprised even me.
First, why did I gain the weight and who can I blame? Can I blame it on the thin and sexy supermodels that have become the standard of perfect weight? Can I blame it on being a member in high standing of the "clean your plate club" since birth? Can I blame it on anyone or any event that has ever touched my life? Who? Who can I blame this on? My kingdom for a Who!
Oh sure I want to blame someone or something but the very bottom line, the very get real bottom line is that the blame sits squarely on my shoulders - I eat too much. That's it; I eat too much and make bad choices. And that, my friends is what it's all about. I have simply overindulged with not a thought of a single consequence. Yup, this truly is all about me! I have not taken the responsibility of my weight issues, and have instead been too busy looking for someone, something to blame.
So now that I have named it and claimed, it's mine. The questions I've had to ask myself are which weight loss programs will work for me? What's my reasoning: slim jeans or good health? How will my life change being 36 pounds lighter? I will need support, where will it come from? The answers are appearing as needed and I am on the path with the expectation of success, with being human as a caveat. This will work for me for now and I'm pleased with myself. Maybe it will help you as well.
