Journaling--

So, haven't communicated with H for about 4 days. Tonight D had several performances at the bball game and I knew H would be there, so I really spiced up my look. It made me feel great. I wore heels (which is a 180, I rarely wear them because I am 5'9"), my hair was cooperative and looked fantastic! I wore a low cut sweater (school color) and felt like I was ready to conquer the world. I caught H looking at me several times as I flitted around the gym visiting with friends. When I sat down, I sat down to a photographer buddy of H to chit chat, and not a few mins later H was there and sat next to me. H and I chatted on and off through out the game, as I left here and there to visit with friends and help with the Dance Team stuff. Everyone kept telling me how great I looked and it boosted my ego. You know, I thought I was going to look good for H to see me, but really, it ended up being for me. I felt great, it helped me to feel confident through out the whole evening. I barely gave H much attention at all.
I have really been working on losing weight and have lost 52 lbs. I actually started the losing weight before H left. I still have about 40 more to get to my goal weight, but I feel so good it is really keeping me motivated! Plus, all the compliments and ego boost is keeping me focused. It is part of my own healing process, and I know it is a permanent lifestyle change.
Okay, it is so late and I need to go get some sleep.

Blessings to all!

When you forgive,you heal. When you let go,you grow. When you cry to God, you surrender. When you love unconditionally, you show others Christ's love.
