Once a miserable 388 pounds, I decided I loved myself enough to try. Try
to be better. Be happier, be healthier, and lose the weight. All the
weight: emotional, spiritual, physical.
When you're in a dark, cold space trapped under 388 pounds light seems
non-existent. I traveled many dark, foggy tunnels before I saw a glimpse
of light. I had a negative spirit, negative attitude, and a negative
outlook. In the depths of darkness, however, there was a nagging
voice within, telling me: I deserved more. I was worthy. I could be
better. After sitting still with myself and some serious soul searching I
was able to hear that voice loud and clear. The voice within instructed
me to stop wallowing in my pity, put my thoughts to action, and create
the life I envisioned for myself. The voice within gave me hope,
courage, and belief. The voice is the very reason I was able to see my
way out of the dark, foggy tunnel. I'm the happiest I've ever been in my
life. Today, I stand in the light.
