Feeling Good

Today I wore a red blouse that I haven't worn in a very long time. It was super sweet. I need to kick it into high gear cause I really want and need to lose more weight since I have a high school reunion in September and I want to be thinner than I was in high school (which shouldn't be very difficult). I have also discovered that one of the reasons I haven't felt like me is that I am not the same me I was when I weighed 220 (right after my mission). I actually cared if I did my hair for work and looked nice. I have begun to love me again, ALL of me. Part of loving me is taking pride in how I look, and that is also important for weight loss because I have discovered that the more I love me and feel good, the more I move and do things and am motivated. For some reason I have just BARELY realized this. Am I just late in discovering it or are there people out there who haven't realized this yet? I think I'm getting my groove (yeah really, my groove) back, not only for weight loss but for life.
