I’m not the woman I used to be. I’m certain that’s a good thing. After years of being unhappy with me – but not unhappy enough to do something about it – I started the year, not with a resolution to be ignored, but with the determination to make small changes in my life and try to be a better version to me. <\/p>\n
Small changes snowball. Each week a new change sparked a new interest and a new way of making my way through the world.<\/p>\n
10 months later I’m no longer obese. I’m no longer overweight. For the first time in over a decade I’m “normal”. <\/p>\n
The new me has a new wardrobe and a new do. That’s right. I’ve cut off my hair. Two feet of it was lying on various hair stylists floors (I had 12 in cut off at a time).<\/p>\n
The new me is less afraid. Except for heights. I’m still terrified of heights! But I do things I previously thought myself incapable of. And I’m inordinately proud of me. <\/p>\n
I’m still a hermit. As an introvert I’ll probably always be a hermit. I’m ok with that.<\/p>\n
I still have a long way to go to reach my health and fitness goals but I no longer think of them as impossible. I’m a whole new me. Hope you learn to like who I’ve become.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
