Like everyone else you have been an inspir...Hi Amy<br /><br />Like everyone else you have been an inspiration to me. I have read your blog and am amazed at your achievement. While I have no idea the depth of your hurt from the past and even the pain in your words now, I do know that you are a very caring and compassionate person. Maybe you need to talk to a counciller or someone who can help you deal with your pain. Doing it on your own (no matter how many friends online) can be daunting and these councillers specialize and know how to make people not forget about their past (as that is part of who they are) but help them overcome the past and doubts. Especially how you have had such a dramatic change in your life in the last three years. I do wish you well Amy like everyone on here and I hope and wish that your dreams will come true. xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206822992661481335.post-75337185215229493522011-10-18T15:55:37.109+11:002011-10-18T15:55:37.109+11:00Thanks so much guys - I don't post for sympath...Thanks so much guys - I don't post for sympathy but more for "release" and keeping this whole thing real I guess! There's much more to this breakdown than what's on the page - A LOT of "action" that goes hand in hand with this one to promote new change and advancement... so it's actually "ok"... and I'll follow this bloggy up as I progress, as things progress! (as always...) <br /><br />Again, a huge THANK YOU for all the kind support I've received - I appreciate it beyond words!<br /><br />xx :)Aimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870034287723974796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206822992661481335.post-25357378256313494832011-10-17T23:11:29.370+11:002011-10-17T23:11:29.370+11:00Big hugs for you Amy.

I only have 25kg to lose and seeing how far you've come gives me hope.<br />Due to a medical condition, I have always looked different to others. Strangers looking at me twice and kids laughing...my confdence was crushed from a very young age. Because of this, I knew that I would never meet a guy because of it. I heard all the stories: "there's someone out there for everyone", "wait and see", "you're beautiful to us" and I always got the shits because they were talking shit. <br />There were times when I would avoid guys all together because then it would be impossible to get rejected, therefore not have to deal with the pain.<br />However, my nan said something to me a couple of years back. She said "there is the right person out there for you, you just haven't met him yet."....I thought that too, was a crock.<br />Cut a long story short, I am now married to the love of my life and he accepts me for me. I never thought it would happen and thank GOODNESS for all those rejections because I never would have met this amazing man.<br />Amy, you deserve to be happy. I think we all appreciate how honest you have been here, and sometimes we need to hit rock bottom before the ride back up to the top of the mountain :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206822992661481335.post-76972323593668299202011-10-16T14:22:38.276+11:002011-10-16T14:22:38.276+11:00Hard to comment on such a raw, full post, Amy.

Transformation, true transformation, should push you, should make you uncomfortable, should make you learn more about yourself. You're at the threshold of another doorway in your transformation. Your transformation is for YOU, not for anyone else, and it shouldn't necessarily be to gain the love of anyone else. <br /><br />Sending you love & light and some energetic confidence....because you ARE worth it!<br /><br />PS - Don't give up the dream....I have a feeling it's a lot closer than you think it is. (look for an event with an obstacle course like a tough chick challenge kind of deal).<br /><br />Oh - and i cannot recommend highly enough a Kinesiologist to assist the transition phase. Good for resetting some of those negative thought patterns.... check these out:<br /><br />http://www.icpkp.com/Category?Action=View&Category_id=148<br />http://www.kinesiology.com.au/wagga.htm <br />(I actually know Sally so can recommend her)Dana Atkinhttp://www.facebook.com/TheMysticJourneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206822992661481335.post-19420820484530978032011-10-16T12:59:49.297+11:002011-10-16T12:59:49.297+11:00It's hard for MEN and WOMEN to believe that th...It's hard for MEN and WOMEN to believe that they are worth anything. I can feel your pain. I weighed damn near three bills (300) and lost the weight and then suddenly got all this attention. I couldnt handle it...I didnt know how. I still felt like that fat kid I used to see in the mirror. Being heavy distorts how we see ourselves, even after the weight is gone. I wish I had the answers for you but I don't.

You are, and part of you knows that, but it is convincing the other parts to believe it that is so hard. Good luck, with another part of your incredible journey.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.com
