Chapters

I wanted to share my personal journey because that was unique to me and life changing. I was overweight and I still had that image in my mind. I still do today. I still struggle with that image of being a sophomore in high school, overweight. And I can see the picture. I know exactly what it looks like. And that struggle has stayed with me for decades and gone through all sorts of variations of different things, with the commonality being I'm a very intense person and I kind of do things at either 100% or 0%. And for me, sharing that story was part of that 100%. Like, I don't think I could have got to that level without publicly sharing the story.
