I cannot believe I have come to a day where I have woken up feeling happy with body appearance! I hope this lasts, but this is truly a bit of a revelation for me; I have never not been self-critical in some respect in regards to weight, but I have to say for my age I look pretty darn great.

I now have a lot of lean muscle mass pretty much everywhere, apparent in the mirror, apparent when I look at my arms and legs just on their own with no mirro. Lean back muscles and torso, my BMI is normal. Being told I looked healthy and good yesterday at my nephew's graduation party didn't translate to "fat" in my mind. I could do without the scar from ulcer surgery on my abdomen but it mostly healed flat, just lighter than the rest of my skin.

So all in all, a good body day! I would love it to last, but even having ONE day feeling this way is AWESOME, just knowing it can happen to me again!
