It's Always Something...

There is this woman at my WW meeting, Jean, who always says that when you are doing well the meeting needs you but when you are struggling you need the meeting. I used to kind of laugh that off but I am finding that statement to be very true lately. I have worked very hard to get where I am. I worked my way down the scale with little 10% increments and I try never to lose faith in myself. In the past time and again I've sold myself short and have given up on myself. I lose sight of where I have come from. Not this time...I refuse to give up !

Truth be told lately I want to give up. I want to put down my burdens and just rest. My hubby is very supportive and won't let me give up on myself. I think sometimes I don't give him enough credit for being the great guy he is. He has unwavering faith in what I can do. He never shies away from telling me how much he loves me. He beams to whomever will listen just how proud he is of my efforts to change my eating habits. I am truly blessed.

I used to always joke that I would kill to be a happy medium. Now that I am a medium, I just need to learn how to be happy. I need to learn to appreciate what I have, who I am. I feel that is the secret to happiness, at least mine.
