Strange NSV
 

This won't initially seem like a NSV to you, but it sort of is.

It was pouring down rain last night. Lots of dangerous thunder, with flash flood warnings, so I couldn't get to the gym this morning. No time to go tonight either.

In the past, I would feel tremendously guilty for not going to the gym - what a loser! But instead, I actually feel ok with it. The situation was out of my control. I will just go tomorrow and get right back to the workouts tomorrow.

I tend to have such negative thoughts about myself. The counselor I have seen says that I don't ever give myself a break - I can (and do) great things that I should be proud of, but I always try to find the little things I didn't do perfectly. I need to give myself a break.

So I have! Instead of feeling like a failure for missing my workout, I am focusing on all of the weight loss I have achieved. I will get right back to the gym tomorrow.

So yes, I think that keeping things in perspective and patting myself on the back a little IS a NSV :carrot:

I think so as well!

Yay! I'm proud of you for not worrying and thinking about solutions, not nagging about present problems :)
