I've been taking time for myself these last few months. Taking a hard look at how I treat my body, how I talk to myself, what I eat, etc. In this process, I have lost 45ish pounds (Down to 298 from 345, as a 24F, 5'10).
I am still (obviously) not where I want to be physically. But I've been feeling better about myself. I've been taking time to get to know what my body can do, and through treating it better I've been realizing that it's worth treating well. I hope that makes sense.
Anyway, my NSV is that I went on a date today. A real date, with a boy (man, whatever). We hung out and walked around and chatted for over an hour and a half before other life obligations butted in.
But throughout this, I hardly felt self-conscious. Actually, there was a time where I wouldn't even really go on dates because I just felt... bleh. I enjoyed my time with this person, enjoyed getting to know them and walking around with them, and didn't waste time or energy on feeling bad about myself.
It's a nice change.
