hi everyone! okay i did something for myself that i never dreamed i would or could do. i have lost 114 pounds in the last year. i have body issues worse than anyone i know,like must that light be on ?lol
so as a present for myself, this last two months i have been traveling to canada and going to wreck beach(which is a optional clothing beach).i was scared to death,my clothing pretty much hides each issue i have with my body.the tummy still isnt tight,and my legs are hidious from losing so much whieght(though im firming up now) i did it! i went nude and i thought i was going to have a panic attack!i realized really i am only a body and for the first time in my life i felt really free and let go of my own issues with myself.im not perfect and never will be but i am me,and its awesome :) i just had to share this ,because when you have obesity or eating disorders you do have issues and self confidence about being heavy and feel like your always being looked at and judged by society. i am inspired to be in even better shape next season not for the beach but for me,i am worth it!
it was liberating!

danny, it sounds like you took a risk and did something that was really important to you..taking risks is scary!!! good for you for stepping out and taking charge...congratulations on losing 114 pounds!! what a wonderful achievement!!! :*

way to go. Overcoming fears is great. keep working on all of you.

Good for you

You go Danny!!!

I know exactly what you are talking about how society looks at you. I was in denial for the longest time.

I know where I'm taking my next summer vacation!!! But I promise to keep my clothes on.

Keep up the awesome job!!

Best wishes,
ashley
