an afterthought

Why is it so very hard to write the truth?
I flinch at reading "I was reborn sometime in the fall of last year" but it is the truth. Why should I shy away from that? Afterall, isn't this an exercise in documenting my personal truth? Here we go.

What I forgot to add is that since October of last year I've lost 120lbs.

It was time for my outside to match my inside.
I had achieved an internal shift and was ready to make the external reflect that shift. Many realizations have come from the process of losing weight - in my relationship to myself, how the world recieves me, and so many other things.

Food is still my drug, companion, friend, and comforter of choice.
Unfortunately.
