This was picked at random from my affirmation cards. I really do think that love is the most important thing in my life. You must learn to love yourself first and that is the key to successful weight-loss and to your ability to love others. Love is at the core of my being. I am loved & I am loving. I deserve & give love.
Say to yourself
I am worthy of love & start believing it!
I am sending you all lots of love :beating: Cate
