andprobablyfood:

I’ve been feeling really down lately so here’s a reminder for EVERYONE that your current circumstances do not dictate your future.

The picture on the left was me five years ago, the right is me yesterday. Over the past year I have:

Maintained an 80 pound weight loss.

Started lifting and could only deadlift two 25 pound dumbbells. This week I pulled 200.

Ended a relationship with an abusive drug addict.

Overcome my own drug addiction.

Been self-harm free (one year in August).

Quit my toxic job and found a job I love.

Enrolled in grad school and almost finished my first quarter.

A year ago my life was in shambles and I couldn’t imagine myself surviving, let alone making progress. So instead of thinking the distance between where you are and where you want to be is impossible to overcome, look instead at where you’ve been and know that progress is possible.
