In Honor of Me!

About me

Location United States
Introduction I am an almost 50 year old woman who has struggled with weight/body issues since I was a little girl. Looking back, I understand that I was perfectly normal until I began to listen to the comments my family made about my size/looks. I never felt like I was accepted and loved for who I was. This blog will help me log my experience of losing my mother at the age of 7, turning to food for comfort, marrying an abusive husband, again turning to food for comfort. All that comfort left me weighing over 300 pounds! My struggle to lose the weight has failed by diet and exercise alone. I believe I need to learn how to love myself for the person I am right now! I am doing this in "Honor of Me". My hope is if I can learn to love and care for myself as well as I have loved and cared for others in my life, I will finally lose weight and keep it off. I once read that eating right is one of the greatest forms of self love. I want to love me - In Honor of Me!
