Fat is therefore a temporary condition of my body that doesn't reflect WHO I AM. Fat is not me. *I* am me.
The excess fat that I have accumulated on my body reflects emotional baggage that I choose to unload today. As I lose pounds, I unload baggage; I unload baggage, I lose pounds.
I've suffered enough.
Words have power.
I've suffered enough.
