My Son Told Me I was "FAT" not "PHAT"

Me: OMG Do I really look like that?

Jalen: Yeah Mom, you do

Me: (First instinct was to smack him) BUT... The Truth hurts!

I have been introduced to the Vi Challenge many times last year. I wanted to take the Challenge from the very first time I saw it, but was resistant to do it.     

 I figured that I could keep up the routine I start and stop at the gym all the time , (lack of an accountability partner) I was dead set on making my current plan work for me, but the picture that is on my profile HIT HOME! I AM FAT!! When I saw the picture, I wanted to cry, but because I was at a celebratory event, I continued to smile even though I felt like "S@#T". "Hearing my grandmother's voice in the back of my head "I don't know why your so heavy, you are always on the go, always doing something with the boys, you have to take better care of yourself Esha"

BLAH, BLAH BLAH

How did I get like that? I don't really eat? "I got to stop eating so much bread!" Were the questions I was asking myself. The more I stared at the picture, the deeper in depression I was feeling myself get into. I came home to that picture and said "Thank god you signed up for the challenge"! The many things I have tried, no more soda, drink water, whole gran cereals and organic EVERYTHING, etc- nothing was working. So, I have joined an "on-line" movement with people who have the same feelings, goals and commitment to loose the dead weight. I just got off the phone with my Mentors Toby and Layla, and they were right, I have to put my fears aside, so what I have tried many things before, but this is what "I WANT" Saying goodbye to my "Fat self" and Can't wait to meet my "Phat Self"!

PS. I was not easy putting myself out there, but I am sure there are plenty of us out there who either tell themselves this EVERYDAY or someone does a fine job in telling you... Like Jalen! :)
