I believe as women it is easy to have a screwed up view of yourself. You feel smaller or larger than you are, you judge yourself by what the scale says and it's hard to remember that true beauty isn't just skin deep. It is amazing looking back at my journey as an adult on my weight. I have always struggled. And thanks to good ol' Facebook I have it all pretty much recorded for everyone to see. And because I love punishment I am going to do a timeline here. It really makes you think. And apparently it is also a timeline of my hair....
