As I look at the letters that You wrote to Me
It's You that I am thinking of,
As I read the lines that to me were so dear,
I remember our Faded Love.
I miss you, Darling more and more every day,
As Heaven would miss the stars above,
With every heartbeat, I still think of You,
And remember our Faded Love

Patsy Cline
Found an old cell phone tonight.
Charged it up, and called forth the Ghost of Pictures Past.
Still amazed at what I see. I feel somewhat detached
from the images there. It's a though I barely knew
my former, heavier self. How can that be?
This Patsy Cline song was on at the time and it
really seemed to fit! Who the heck was that person?
Guess I'll never know. I was happy then, at least.
Being heavy doesn't mean being unlovable.
Hope your day is happy and filled with lots of love!

Speaking of letters, I am finally finally mailing yours tomorrow!! I wrote it a couple weeks ago buttttt
ReplyDeleteAnne - I also feel sad about things gone by and people / things I've lost along the way. To some extent, I'll (probably) always harbor the child that misses what was and never was. At the very least, you can / should feel proud about the way you're caring for yourself now vs. then. Every victory counts. And self-love definitely counts! I think what you've accomplished is pretty spectacular.

I really miss my "other" self somehow...
ReplyDeleteAll this time, and I never knew my own self.
How did this happen? Guess I'll never know.
Very poignant Anne.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling, Anne. When I see photos of me before losing the weight, I now feel I am looking at a total stranger. I also mourn the years I spend that way without doing something. I wish it had been able to "get it" when I was younger and had more years ahead of me to enjoy good health.
ReplyDeleteIve never heard this song before, its nice. Sad and wistful which I guess would fit the feelings you describe having charging up that old phone! What do you miss about your "other self"? I hope you are happy today!!!
ReplyDeleteA pictorial testimony to how far you have come! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteSometimes i really miss a past behavior that made me feel happy! (well i didn't really but it made me think i was happy)
ReplyDeleteI don't think we ever let go totally of the things/people we used to have/be.
Wow...that was interesting and sorta sad....
ReplyDeleteBut we know you love the Annie now, right? Cause you rock! (What song would your new self get???)
I bet you were just AS lovable then as you are now. :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting that you posted this on the day Jack Lalanne made his transition. The guru of fitness was and is loved by many...just like you our guru of LowCarb is and will always be lovable.
ReplyDeleteFor me, being heavy meant I was unloveable unfortunately. I wish I hadn't wasted those years hating myself but cest la vie I guess...
