Let it Happen

Weight loss can stir up a lot of emotions and a lot of life changes. This is good. Let it happen. Feel as though you are shedding, truly shedding the layers of pain. When you let go of food as your comfort, as your friend, and as your escape, you will have a lot of emotions that you may not know what to do with. This hidden emotional work is an important part of the weight loss process. It can make the world of difference to have a safe place to work through the emotional side of weight loss – a quiet room behind closed doors, a good friend, therapist, or a loving family member to talk to, or personal time to go for a relaxed walk. The most important thing to remember is that this is normal and natural, so let it happen.
