I should be skinny before I colour my hair
Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 02/01/2010 - 07:39
Yesterday I went out and bought a hair colour. This is significant to me because it is one of those things I was always going to do "when I lost the weight".
I have been holding off on doing my hair for years thinking I should be skinny before I colour my hair. Sounds crazy I guess but true!
You had told me to learn to like myself now...otherwise I will be disappointed when I "lose the weight" so I am trying to do things as my rewards for small goals reached instead of when I reach my end goal.
My hope is that this can only build my self confidence making it easier to continue to stay motivated. And maybe, just maybe I can learn to like myself just the way I am.

Acceptance is seeing yourself
Acceptance is seeing yourself as you really are. It does not mean giving in to something we dislike but rather accepting that somethings we can change but somethings are exactly the way they are, at this moment.
If we are never happy at this moment, no matter where we get to (or goals achieved, weight loss and so on) we'll never be happy and always be waiting to get somewhere else.
Great job acknowleding that now is the only real time to love yourself.
Living now, not later sounds
Living now, not later sounds good:) Everything is really not about weight anyway:)
