I know this is a little funny, but this was for me to remind me why I have started this journey. This was my goodbye letter to all things sweet and the fast foods.


Dear ALL Sweets and fast foods,
It seems odd that I start a letter with dear ALL sweets and fast foods rather than buddies, companions or amigos. My life has certainly taken quite a turn.

Though we have been together all the years of my life. I always believed that I would always need you in my life. For some reason I thought I needed you, but in reality you gave my family diabetes, heart disease, heart attacks, and death. I am letting you know now that I am putting my little tiny foot down in your big fat greasy heart, and I am flat out telling you NO! You have caused me so much grief and heart ache it only took me twenty six years to find out how bad you have actually hurt me and my family. You have taken my grandmother, both of my uncles, and my grandfather and all on the same side no less.

So now it is my time, this is my time. This is who I am becoming and I am happy to say that I no longer need you as a burden and clogging up my arteries. Since it seems that you are lurking around every corner I am going to keep my head hi and wave on. Even if I feel like you are stalking me, I will smile and wave but never pick you up again. I will not lose this fight. So goodbye ALL Sweets and Fast foods.

Love,
me

    I love what you had to say in your letter, this is just what I have been feeling especially with the sweets they have been destroying my life. I had lapband surgery and got halfway to goal then picked up the sweets and milkshakes again and have put 40 lbs. back on but I say NO MORE! I am stronger than that. They will not destroy me! I will also hold my head high and just wave and go on by!:flowerforyou:
