I feel embarrassed and ashamed of how far I let my body go. I know the right things to do and I could coach someone one on all the things they need to do to regain their health. Why can’t I apply the same principals to myself?
Short answer: I need to feel like I’m worth it.
I also need to stop the pursuit of things that are comfortable for me; working in my brain and learning. Sitting in my own skin brings a level of discomfort that I cannot describe.
A healthy sense of self and a healthy life will provide me the permission to exist – to unapologetically take up space.
