The Meaning Behind My Blog Name

I called my blog Slowly Losing Myselfbecause I knew that my weight loss journey would be a slow one because I have so much weight to lose. In the process I knew I would slowly be losing the old self and gaining a much more confident, happier person along the way. I also named it that because growing up I slowly lost myself as I gained weight. The person I am, the person inside me doesn’t look like this or weigh this much. She’s been trapped inside this wall of fat forever and is finally, slowly being let back out to enjoy her life to the fullest. Plus, I just like the play on words. lol
