*going for a walk in the morning cool air

Wow Amy thank you for sharing. I used to feel that way too but never voiced. But that has healed as I have done the food.

Healing is grand

: This is the first year in... well, in
: my life, I think... that I am
: actually enjoying the gradual
: change of season from winter to
: spring. Though I know spring is
: many people's favorite season, in
: the past it has always brought up
: feelings of dread for me because
: of all the things it symbolized
: for me. Having to give up my
: more-concealing winter clothes,
: having to face the consequences of
: holiday/winter binges, having to
: be "seen" more in the
: world. I know that sounds crazy,
: but it's all that low
: self-esteem/poor body image
: self-talk that comes from being an
: unbalanced SS. This year is
: different. I'm more present, more
: go-with-the-flow and enjoy it
: regarding the season change. Am I
: thrilled with my extra pounds? No.
: But they are not at the forefront
: of my mind and certainly not at
: the root of me dreading a lovely
: new season. They are simply a
: project I will work on gradually,
: when the time is right. Like many
: of the changes I notice when I
: commit to RR, this is a subtle but
: powerful one.
