Dear John (Letter)

Dear food,

 

You have been a source of refuge and comfort for a long time, something to warm me on cold winter nights and to celebrate life's milestones. But sadly, our relationship is no longer working for me.

 

You've become an obsession, an unhealthy and unproductive millstone. So I've decided that it's time to say goodbye. There are some special mentions I'd like to make...good bye massive bowls of spaghetti, blocks of chocolate, cheesy pizza and my old friend, coke. Though over the coming days our parting will be difficult, and I will no doubt long for the days when I would indulge in you with impunity, I am excited to let you go.

 

I will get an opportunity to explore life beyond this obsession. So with sadness but absolute determination, fare thee well, old friends.

 

With no regrets, Lila :)

 

(I start my pre-op diet in the morning :) And I am actually feeling excited about it! Wish me luck!!)
