Default Nsv: I finally love my body again
So, Im still not a skinny girl by any stretch of the imagination. I still want to lose more weight, and I can't wait to do that. However, I have gotten to a point where I love my body for possibly the first time in my life. I'm finally seeing the beautiful lady I feel like I've always wanted to be. Because I appreciate my body, I am ten times happier than I ever have been and it shows. I rarely feel the urge to stop smiling. Because I am happier, people are responding to me in a completely different way. I have fought for my own love and respect through this journey, and its here. I can run, I am a really strong person physically, and its all because I've worked hard. I've slipped, but never went back to my old ways of thinking, and when I look in the mirror, I don't mind the bulges and stretch, marks. I earned my body and darn it, I'm proud. Thanks for letting me share a bit.

Congratulations!!! You should be very proud of yourself. I can't wait for my scale to say one something. It seems almost unimaginable to me. I think I was in high school the last time I saw that on my scale.
