Being different is not easy.
It’s the cookouts, Sunday dinners, and potlucks when you remember.
“I’m not like everyone else anymore.”
It’s a startling realization because I am now separate from “the pack.”
It’s always, “Oh yeah. I forgot hun.”
“You don’t eat what again?”
“Just salad for you right?!”
And then the like “The Shining Knight in Armor” my resolve breaks through.
I eat more food than I have eve eaten on any diet.
I am losing weight.
Protecting my body against heart disease, various cancers and other diseases of affluence.
I am different because I care about me.
Stay strong remember how much you love you when things get hard.
