Time to say goodbye...



Recommended Posts

Well, it's been fun. Scratch that. Actually it hasn't. I may as well be real.

I'm saying goodbye to the me I see in the mirror. I'm saying goodbye to fat clothes, stretch pants, sweats, red face, panting while walking, aching joints, and feeling out of place at most functions, or simply feeling invisible. I'm saying goodbye to hating myself and being uncomfortable in my own skin. I'm saying goodbye to feelings of inadequacy due to my weight (the other stuff will be dealt with, however), and, let's face it, a difficult sex life. :eek:

I'm saying hello to the person I was meant to be, hello to regular clothes, walking without discomfort, tying my shoes with ease (!), and dancing! I'm saying hello to a healthier me, one that loves and forgives herself for not having been perfect and never going to be perfect. I'm saying hello to swinging from the chandeliers with my husband and maybe even buying that naughty nurse outfit I never had the nerve to try before. :thumbup:

Tomorrow is the beginning of the rest of my life. Goodbye, old me. A newer model is coming down the pike. :frown:

All these ominous titles, always making me nervous.

Bye-Bye Old you. :cursing:

Good luck with your trip, grrl. Being thin is much more fun. Feel free to write to us about the scenery you experience during your travels into skinnyLand. I personally found mine of interest and would love to hear about yours.

Beth, good luck tomorrow. I am sure everything will go wonderfully for you. As soon as you feel up to it, let us know how you are doing.

The old Beth is dead! Long live the new Beth!
