Let's get something straight...

I've been thinking about the previous post (my first ever!!) for a few hours and I need to clarify something. This blog is not about food addiction. Its not about an eating disorder, or weight loss, or dieting. Its about victory. Its about what happens next. Its true, there may be some business to take care of first- whether its losing some extra weight, gaining some needed weight or just plain accepting the weight you are because deep down you know its just right. But then what? We rarely hear about what happens next. That's what BDF is all about. Balance, Discipline and Freedom. Learning to live in this culture of ours that is in love with extremes... and not embrace them.

I want you to walk with me through this process of letting go of my addiction to sugar and all the nasty habits that have developed along with it. Perhaps it will inspire you to take a similar journey, or one that is different but equally important. But that's just the beginning! This is really about the next part of the journey, the longer, lifetime one. Lets learn to go through the seasons of the year and the seasons of life without being enslaved to food, cravings, dieting, what the scale says, etc not because we've given up but because we have overcome. Our clothes fit right, we are comfortable and confident in our own skin and quite frankly, we have other things to think about. Can you imagine? Can you imagine not thinking about it anymore?? I will admit, its hard to picture. But I am so ready. Come with me...
