It's not the power of the curse...


...it's the power we GIVE the curse. This is a line from a movie I just finished watching, and as with a lot of things I see these days, I immediately associated it with the journey Sunny Girl and I are on.

Being overweight, in my opinion, can be a curse. For me, it has been a never ending cycle of dieting methods, exuberant beginnings, tragic failures, depression and sadness. If this isn't the description of a curse, I don't know what is.

But I realize now that all this time, and through all the previous attempts at loss, I never really focused on the basic fact that I was giving the 'curse' the power over me, giving IT POWER and letting it defeat me, every time.

Sunny Girl and I have finally decided to take the power away from the curse, and give the power back to ourselves. The power to change, the power to make the right decisions, and most of all the power to look the curse in the face and say.. 'You no longer have power over us!'

Here is to the power we both have, Sunny Girl!

  2. You know, I got goose bumps reading this blog...you took the words right from my fingertips! I really have never felt so active in using the power of the mind before. I can't even articulate all that I feel about this subject, but that's the beauty of doing this together...I don't have to, you already know.
