Do You Love Yourself?

I remember years ago I was speaking with my counselor. I was telling her how I was feeling about myself.

I had gained a lot of weight. I felt shame and anger toward myself. I was beating myself up in my mind all the time.

I’d look in the mirror and the words that came to mind were…

“Look at me – I’m disgusting.”

“How could I do this again?”

“Oh my gosh, I can’t believe how fat I am!”

I had been battling my weight since I was about 10 years old…well on some level for as long as I could remember.

This cycle was repeated many times over the years.I’d lose weight over the course of anywhere from three months to about a year. Often the weight loss was about 50 pounds. Here I was again.
