I am enough

I have over 100lbs to loose. I feel overwhelmed and daunted by this number. I keep telling myself that next month I will start, the end of the year, next week and I never do. I use my job, my relationships, my health (as ironic as that is) as an excuse. I can’t keep living like this. I read something that has started a ripple within me “to give into the desire to binge is an act of self harm, to overcome it, to commit to not acting upon the urge however strong is a step towards self love” . I need to love myself more. I owe it to my body, to my mental health to overcome these terrible habits I have instilled into myself. So A day, One day, Today, I start. Small victories and little goals and when I look at myself in the mirror tomorrow I will say “I am worthy enough to do this. I can do this. And I love myself enough to do this” One step on a very long road. I won’t bemoan the finish line being out of site instead I will admire the many rocks, trees,birds and flowers along the way.
