Leaving the Foolish behind

My crazy ex- husband joined my kids and I at church yesterday. During the announcements a weight loss challenge was announced and he immediately looked my way.

"You're joining that, right?" He asks, expectantly.

If you follow my posts you'll know that he is the biggest enemy next to myself.

Nonchalantly, I say back, "Whatever." After a few more minutes of bantering he shoots back, "you were at your best in high school."

Huh! I thought to myself. Is that really the time in my life that he compares me to. Twenty years ago! I was less than a buck oh five in that day! I stopped desiring to get back to that at least ten years ago! Partly because I realized that it would never happen.

And I've been okay with that fact for quite some time. Unfortunately, other people aren't. That's why your weight loss goals have to be based on what you want, wants realistic and attainable for you. Shame on anyone else in your life who says differently.

So who are you losing weight for?
