PrettyHealthyMe's Journal, 19 July 2016

I had a great moment today. I was browsing some old photos and I found one from 7 years ago. I haven't looked at those photos for a long time. It was taken on a holiday and I was very happy at that time. I was at the beginning of a relationship, changing jobs and moving, etc. you know the feeling :-) It is a nice photo, smiling in a cafeteria. And what struck me was that how slim I was. At that time I must have been 62 kg or perhaps even less. The clothes size 38 aka 10 or 12..

The beauty of this story is that when I looked at that photo, the happiness that radiates from if just filled me in all of the sudden, and instantly I felt that I am that person. (I have a not so happy period in my life right now with too little of social life and too much of stress, and a big amount of uncertainty in some major aspects of my life). It is not only about my body (that was pretty at that time), but the entire person: the hope for the better, the good energies and so on.

It is as if I suddenly I stepped into my old myself and I got rejuvenated in the best way.

I could easily eat way less today and keep my diet in control. I feel happy and I started to see things around me more hopeful. I got some extra energies to push forward my goals: both in losing weight and in other issues I am working on. It is a bit of a magical feeling.
