sleepless again

i am more than wide awake, lurking on new blogs and sorting through my reader. oh how full it was... i don't know whether it's stress or sugar or over tiredness that is keeping me awake. i would say an 80%/12%/8% combo of the three.
The stress has been so awesome for helping me get skinny tho. the jiggly flags of skin under my arms are almost gone, and my thighs are shrinking every week. a welcome miracle considering one of the nasty names i was called in school was 'Thunder Thighs'.
the side effects of the stress have been less desirable - migraines, nausea, anxiety to name a few. it's all normal considering the circumstances. i just keep telling my self to breath and take it one moment at a time. but reality is extremely overwhelming right now.

dear self,
be proud of yourself. you are doing really well, considering the dark stormy place you could be right now. in the last year you have accomplished so much, and that deserves a mega high 5. you lost 50 lbs. and still continue to lose more. you married your best friend after planning the most amazing wedding of the 21st century together. you hand-made 99% of the ceremony and reception stationary projects, as well as designed most of the personalized wedding elements. you had the wildest bach party with all of your dearest ladies in the most sinful place on earth. good times were had by all - even those who got lost along the way. you have made a conscious decision to live in a positive and optimistic state of mind. you are surrounded by people that care about you, respect you, and support you, no matter what you do.
be proud of yourself. you are doing really well.
love.
