For the first time in ten years I am able to look at myself in the mirror and not feel depressed. For the first time in ten years I smiled looking at the mirror. I am not even close to my goal, but I am finally seeing progress. I am now down 25 pounds.
I, a full ass dude cried a few happy tears today. And say what you want but depression absolutely destroyed my self image and now I am finally resuscitating it.
