Radical gratitude
03/19/2009 06:17 p.m.


I'm employing a new, radical way of expressing gratitude. I'm thanking my fat cells for all their hard work, all their preparation for hard times, their protection of my vital organs, and how they've stuck around (laughing). But every day, I release more and more of them from their long tour of duty, free them to go and attach themselves elsewhere in the universe. I giggle at their reluctance to let go, but gently shoo them on their way. Some of them skip off, happy to be free. Some of them look confused as they leave, and some of them, maybe, even a little disappointed. But I just reassure them - I'm going to be just fine without them.

Dare I love my freedom this much? Ahhhhh, it's a good thing...

I am currently: losing weight
Listening to: the decline of my blood sugars!
