* * * * 200.5 * * * *

  • Oh boy... I got on the scale this morning and weighed 200.5... That is such a scary number for me...... I try not to let the scale run my life, I know better... but I do let it be my best friend when I'm losing...

    The number ruined about 8 hours of my day... which included a fattening lunch and some crankiness at work... and that's it !

    I recovered a lot quicker this time.. and that's a big thing to me... I'm one of those people who says to myself.. "oh well, I'll get back on track tomorrow, next week, next month..." You know how that goes...

    I'm back on track tonight and its not a Monday or 1st of the month... and despite quitting smoking, despite some medical setbacks and physical setbacks I'm still pushing...

    It amazes me how little credit I give myself for these accomplishments.. Like getting back on plan...I would have handled things a lot differently a few months ago...

    I guess what I want to say: GIVE YOURSELF MORE CREDIT, make yourself aware of all the little things you do RIGHT !! I got used to zero-ing on everything I did wrong... this time I recognized what I did right !!!!!!!!!
  • You'll have it off again in no time. You did it before, and I believe you can do it again
  • You can do this!! Keep chugging along on track
  • Yay for you for stopping negative thinking and giving yourself credit!
  • Awesome! I like that kind of thinking...pass it on to me!
  • Way to go!
    That's great!! Give yourself the credit you deserve. You saw, you met, you conquered. You sound very concrete and determined in your conviction. Don't let that go away, hold on and run with it! You definitely have the gumption and I think that you will do great. GOOD LUCK!!! (Although I don't think you'll need it )
