Ok, I have a quiet moment right now, so I figured Id post. Heres the honest truth. Ive gained weight back over the last year or so.... and Im ok. Im not horrified, or angry, or disappointed in myself. Im not disgusted when I look in the mirror. Yes, Im starting to get a little uncomfortable in my lack of wardrobe choices, but the big NSV here is that I am ok. I am mentally well. We have moved into a beautiful home that has already blessed our family in so many ways, and my children are happy. My husband is less stressed. We are starting a wonderful life here. And none of that is affected by the fact that I have gained weight... because I havent allowed it to.... because I am REALLY ok. Theres a peace that comes with accepting yourself where you are while still understanding that the work I am doing is not over. I am human, and I can only focus on so much at once. Yes, my workouts have taken a back burner to more pressing things lately, and yes, Ive eaten things I would have previously stressed and obsessed over, but guess what. I am ok. Another bit of truth- I think I often posted here looking for acceptance and a way to go or you look amazing. I think, perhaps, the reason I have been posting less is because I dont need that outside affirmation as much as I did before. Of course, its nice to get a compliment, but I dont NEED it. I see myself in the mirror, weight gained, flaws and all, and I am content. So, Ill post when I post (Im sure Ill be sharing my workouts once I get back to them- as soon as things settle down here at the new house). Hope you are all doing well. :) #beyoutiful
