Have you ever wondered who named the colors? Why is the sky blue and not green? What is to say that color blind people are actually seeing things the correct way and the rest of aren't? Who was the first person to put a mushroom in their mouth and say, "mmmmmmm that is really good"? I think about these things all the time. I am curious about everything! I need to know everything! I am amazed at how much we learn just by living everyday!
In the last 11 weeks I have learned more about me, my family, and my friends than I ever thought was possible! I have learned that I don't need food when I have such great friends. I may not be losing weight at an amazing rate, but I am losing and I am keeping it off! This is all because of the love and support of all my family and friends reminding me to think differently about food and my life. Food is something I need to fuel my body, I do not need it to sooth me when I am upset, cheer me up when I am sad, or entertain me when I am bored. It is a benefit of going to lunch with a friend, but the friend is why I am there, not the food.
I learned that although I am not the friendliest, most caring, helpful person in the world...I am loving, generous, and kind. I would do anything for my family and friends! I have learned how to reach out and say, I need you...I have learned when I need to say I am sorry and when I have a right to have stand up for me, even if that upsets you. I have learned that if you can't understand me, I don't need to waste my time to explain myself to you over and over again. I love the new improved me!
Learning is fun!
