Hello again!
It is snowing today, in CT. I don't like snow very much, but the light stuff is okay with me. It's only when it becomes a hassle to drive in do I hate it.
But the weather is not why you're tuning in! Since I last checked in, I have lost *drumroll* 3 lbs!! which brings us to the beautiful step called -55!! Still right on track to end the Road Block by August. :)
And commence the introspective part of the blog:
I've been thinking about self-esteem, and my lack of it. I have a very odd sense of esteem. I think it is most generically described like this: I think I'm pretty, but I don't think other people think I'm pretty. And that same idea spans across a lot of my thinking about things. There are other people who are much bigger than me, but if they have that sense of self-worth... don't they seem more beautiful? :/ What I'm trying to say is I'm finding that getting thin isn't, in the end, going to give me the confidence I desire. Because no matter how good I think I look, or charming, or bubbly.... I still won't think anyone else thinks the same things I do. So I don't know
how I will change that, but I am certainly going to try.
Total loss: -55/93
