3 years. I just reread my post on my 1 year anniversary and
it was profound and amazing. A letter to myself from the future. Boy it was
awesome and I loved the idea so much I do think I might go ahead and formulate
another letter for my 3 year anniversary. I just keep getting better and better
with time and more and more humbled honestly by what I am capable of. That girl, 3 years ago, had ZERO idea what
she was in for. And how wonderful her
life could be. And how much everything she ever wanted was within her all
along. It was always there. Incredible.
Do you know what it’s like to truly love yourself enough to
go for your epic dreams? I didn’t. It has taken a long time to figure it all
out. But I am floored by the fact that I’m approaching 3 years. In the 11 years since losing the weight for
the very first time I have only once celebrated a 1 year weight loss anniversary.
The very first time. No other weight
loss stuck a full year. And now we are at 3 years. Its
beyond evident to me I am a completely changed woman and I won’t ever,
like EVER be returning to that former life. I don’t even know how to anymore. I
may get moments of blah or feeling lost but overall this is who I am. This is was who I was always supposed to be.
3 entire years. I feel like that totally calls for an off
the charts kind of celebration. Except I won’t. It’s a Monday so what can I
really do? But hint Sunday I might be doing something cool. Anyhow just wanted to pop by and acknowledge
the epic-ness that is coming. I need to write a letter soon. Last year to
celebrate 2 years I ran the Rock N Roll San Jose half marathon and got my PR at
the time. I remember being incredibly
emotional for lots of reasons. And here we are another year down. Whatever I’m
doing in my life is clearly working for me. 3 years. It’s hard to believe how completely different
your life can become in 3 years. Like night and day, 1000% different. And
better. Never stop believing that you can achieve anything you desire. You have
the power within you. Always.

That's awesome! 3 years is an amazing accomplishment! And what you have achieved in those 3 years is so much more than the number on the scale. I also can't believe it's been 11 years since you started your weight loss journey. I think I started reading your blog after you had lost weight, so I'm assuming that was close to 10 years ago! Yikes, that makes me feel old!
