Thumbs up 17 Words to Live By

My WW Leader didn't want to talk about exercise last week which I guess was the appointed topic. Instead, she wanted to talk about the 17 Words to Live By. I'm not sure where she got this little poem (so I can't give credit) but I liked it and thought I'd share it with all of you.

Weight Loss success will be yours when you:

prepare to be thinner,
listen to positive messages,
smile through challenges,
care enough about yourself to do whatever it takes to make it happen,
choose to embrace the changes that are occurring,
keep your focus on your Winning Outcomes,
believe in yourself,
relax and not expect yourself to be perfect,
act on changes that will further your progress,
forgive yourself if necessary,
pray for strength to follow through with your goals,
trust the Program,
realize that change is exciting,
persist in the face of obstacles,
accept that success doesn't happen overnight,
risk becoming thinner, and
wait, even when that is the hardest thing to do!

Vickie, this is really great. Thanks for sharing. I think the hardest parts for me are caring enough about myself to make it happen, keeping my focus, as well as accepting and waiting! Oh I'm a mess!
