I say thank you and goodbye to each pound I lose because they served their purpose but they are no longer needed. I don’t need to use food to find happiness or for punishment, that was the old me. ~ Lori B

Food had its purpose.
For some of us it served us well,
providing a source of comfort,
a means of escape. Some stress
we ate to escape could be in our lives today.
But whether we used food for comfort
or to punish ourselves, we’ve learned a better way.
Today we can say goodbye to pounds
we never had to add or to surrender
and live in gratitude for all we have
as well as what we can release.
May your Thanksgiving find your heart
abounding in gratitude!
