Dear Me,

You're chubby, loud, you talk too much, you over analyze,
and sometimes you're down right lazy.
You have let people try to change you.
You have let yourself down mentally and physically.
You cry over people that don't deserve your tears.
You eat your emotions.
You have withdrawn from life in so many ways from being hurt.
You arent YOU anymore.

But dont you worry, I am here and we are going to get thru this together.
We are going to eat right, exercise, and throw on some damn makeup.
Did you lose your curling iron... GO find it!
We are going to remember that woman that you were and by God we are getting her back.
Remember her???
She was beautiful and funny... she was like a candle that people were drawn to.
She loved every part of life and never felt less or insecure.
Dont worry, she will come back... because no one loved her more than we did.

Love you,

Me

    This almost made me cry! I feel the same way. Life has a way of making us lose ourselves. All I can remember is the little happy girl I used to be. You'll find it again :)

    Cool beans. After a small health scare last year I decided that I needed to get healthier. I felt guilty for focusing on me but hubby said I needed to focus on me now. So one day at a time I'm getting there.
    So to quote Dori from Finding Nemo Just keep swimming.

    Boundaries with other people are definitely not an issue for me.
    This post isnt about how other people treat me...its about how I treat myself.
    Good luck to you.
