I have started the training for the DVD's and it has been pretty physically demanding. I am at Slimmons Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and when I am not there I have been pretty good at keeping my butt moving.
I have made some great new friends in all of this. People from all different walks of life have become such an inspiration to me.
It really couldn't have come at a better time in my life. I am finally taking care of me, putting myself first, and it feels amazing. There really couldn't have been a better time for this place to come into my life. The last year- months- have held some changes. Some big heartbreaks and pain. I have realized while I give my whole self to someone they may not always do the same in return. I have lost my escape in the mountains at Bravo, the place that has brought me back in touch with me for the last 8 years of my life. So it has been hard. But through it all I have made some great new friends, and rediscovered how lucky I am to have to ones I do.
With all of these things I have been able to confide in my roommate and best friend who is the best listener in the world. I have been cheered on by Candi, Kelly, and Marisa; And my grandmother is my biggest fan. She is so happy for me. She keeps telling me I am glowing, that she has never seen me so happy. For the most part she is right... however- I tend to lead towards the happy road of life whenever I can- but my confidence is booming because I am not worried about other people.
In the last few months I have stood up for myself, made new friends, and lost some of the weight I have used as a crutch for far too long. So eezzz good folks. Of course, if I said that I haven't cried a lot of water weight away I would be a liar. But when the eyes are dry and all is said and done I know who I am and what I deserve and I am no longer afraid to demand it. That's right peeps- I used the 'D' word! I think we should all have things in life we require- weather big or small- from a friend or a lover. You know why? We all deserve it. I deserve it. I am worth it.
So thank you to all my friends who have been there for me through all of this, throughout all my life. I love you more than you will ever know- even though I always tell you.
