Another Layer
S10C and BB.com Family! What’s up?
Another layer…what could that mean?
I’ll tell you.
I was putting lotion on my face the other day (experimenting with cocoa butter to moisurize at night) and was rubbing it in in an upward motion (supposed to lessen wrinkles…if it’s good enough for Lena Horne it’s good enough for me) and felt my cheek muscles and cheek bones.
Now when I look at pictures of me now it seems like my head is small for my body. It looks kinda scrawny to me, especially after years of looking at a chubby face. But in putting on this lotion I realized there is still another layer of fat to come off and my face is going to be even more skinny (along with the rest of me).
Weird.
Because when I look at myself now I can see that it is me (duh, who else is looking out of those eyes?) but at the same time I have never seen this chick before. Who is this narrow faced, tiny headed girl?
I don’t at all feel nostalgic for fat faced Alissa. She was nice but WEAK. I like new narrow faced Alissa a lot, but I am just getting to know her as I move along this path.
Realizing that there is another layer to come off strikes me as odd, but I guess I’ll get to know "even narrower faced Alissa" when she comes along in the next year or so. I hope she is even tougher than me now.
Hurrah and Cheers!
Alissa

I love that you are embracing the new Alissa and looking forward to an even better version of yourself. You go girl!

Thanks! I am digging the digging me out. Done once, doing again.
