I believe in having someone you can share your goals with, Lindsay encourages it as well in her book Meant to Eat. I have this Blog, Blog comments, and my sisters. Yesterday when I first checked my phone I realized Lindsay Rineholt had included this Blog in her newsletter and shared it on Facebook. A great way to start the day and more accountability, win win!

I am feeling good lately because I realized I have been looking in the mirror at myself again. I had been sort of mad and ashamed of 'me and my choices' and so was avoiding looking at myself. I didn't like what and who I saw. It feels really good to be on better terms with me.

I have been discouraged that my clothes aren't getting loose. How can I fit into my capris and yet my jeans feel the same? When I've measured weight-loss in the past it tends to be that I gain and lose all over. Others gain all in the middle. I need to believe in this process and my relationship with food becoming healthy, but it's hard to not be focused on "results". Feeling not size!
Happy Friday morning to you!
ReplyDeleteHere is a quick thought - Although when I start making good food choices I want immediate results! Now! What are we waiting (weighting?) for! My more rational self does know that health experts say that a slow weight loss is better. I love that your capris fit! I love that you recognize that you are looking at yourself again and with compassion. I love that you are sharing!
I'm kinda jealous that you lose all over since if I lose weight, it comes off my face first as if that is helpful for my lack of wearable school clothes.
