Being Happy

So, I haven't lost any weight. I have started lifting heavier, though. I love how it feels when I see the amounts I'm lifting go up.
My body is big, and it's strong.
The few health issues I have are completely unrelated to my weight or bodyfat percentage.
I've said for a long time that I want to look better when I turn 40 than I did when I turned 30. Well, I have two years, but I already look better. Not because I'm thinner - I'm not.
I look better because I've realized that no matter what I weigh, I deserve to take care of my body. I don't need to be thin to eat things I love, I don't need to be thin to smile when faced with a camera, and I certainly don't need to be thin to be happy.
So I'm going to continue working out hard, eating guacamole (and sometimes cake), and building a happy, healthy life for myself and my family!
