They say a picture is worth a thousand words but for me I'm speechless. I had no idea how fat I was. Even as I started taking the weight off I couldn't see it. I still can't look in the mirror and see it but then again, I didn't see how fat I was either. Today's picture makes me proud. So yes. I'm going to pat myself on the back today!
I want to get back to my blog because, well, I've not written anything in well over a year. Writing helps me and I just need to get back to it. In that year I have put on some of my weight. How much...oh, like 35 pounds! Some of that is from my hormonal change after a hysterectomy. Some of that is stress. But most of that is my addiction. My name is Shannon and I'm addicted to food. Yes, addicted to food. It is my drug of choice. I'm not addicted to healthy foods. I'm addicted to sweets to the point that I have days that I eat nothing but sweets. I have tried several medications to help me but none have helped so far. I am going to be working on myself again and working to overcome this addiction. It is so hard but I can do it.
