Good-bye 50lbs!

Weight loss is a crazy thing. I have lost 50lbs over the years and reached my "goal". I have learned so much! My idea of healthy now is much different than what it was 5 years ago. It's ever evolving, really, as I continue to learn new things.  It also wasn't just about weight lost but about loving myself. You may think they go hand in hand, but I learned firsthand that they do not. They are two separate battles.  I used to eat healthy to drop pounds. Now I eat healthy to feel better, live longer, to take care of my health etc.  It has become more of an internal than external thing. :)

Here's a little weight loss video I made. I wish I had taken better pictures along the way but oh well! I think you get the overall effect.  It says nothing for how much more confidence I have, how less often I get sick, how much stronger I am, how much more energy I have etc though!
