I'm sure it's been done to death but I figured out the real reason I'm putting myself through this.
When I picture myself in the mirror I don't see a 17 stone person, I see the 11 stone, gorgeous 18 year old that I used to be (and not that long ago, either!). I find myself amazed to see pictures of me because that isn't who I am in my head. I don't feel disgusted or ashamed, more a bit confused. Who is that woman? What has she done with the real treefrog?
So, this time I'm going to uncover the woman I see in my mind. She's not something I've lost forever, just misplaced for a while. I'm not ashamed of who I am, but I want to be the person I think I am, and if I can do it physically, then there will be no stopping me.
What's your motive?
