Too Shocking

Okay, there are some things that are too shocking to be able to digest all at once. I know I'm fat and have been for a long time but when I had someone take head to toe pictures of me from front, side and back I was utterly shocked. 

Frankly, I am still on the fence about whether or not I'm glad I saw them. Teetering on the precipice of depression; seeing something like that will push you over the edge. I haven't slept well for the past couple of days because of it. Talk about being overwhelmed by the task at hand. 

I know I didn't gain all of this in a day, week or month and I know it won't go away quickly but something has to be done. Something other than wishing it away.

These are not pictures I would share. I don't have to guts to put myself out there for the world to see. I will however work toward changing what is captured on camera. I have to. It's not just vanity, it's dangerous healthwise to continue on this way. 

I'm not even going to post a weight at this point. First, I haven't been on a scale. Second, my mind couldn't handle knowing the actual number. So, I will have to rely on how clothes fit and how I feel to measure the changes for now. 

My health issues will make changes harder but not impossible. Writing this out does help, even if no one ever reads it, lol. Stay tuned.
