Am I mentally ready..

This morning I weighed in and I only lost -.2. For a moment I found myself questioning what I'm doing. Is this right, is it working, am I doing everything I need to be doing? All the questions started to rush through my mind. But then I stopped and reminded myself that I am doing the right thing, it is working and I am on a path that I need to be on. My mental talk track for years has been one of defeat. Talking myself out of it, bringing myself down, thinking that I already know what other people would say. It's very defeating and it really played a big part on how I lived my life. It hasn't just been this weight loss program that's brought me to this place, but many things in the last 1-2 years that have made me switch my talk track. Encouraging myself, listening to what people really say and understanding that life isn't about waiting around to be accepted but to be happy with who I am as a person and get the task done. Whatever that might be-get it done and do it with a smile. :)

I still believe that my body is on strike. It doesn't like it one minute that I've switched everything up. But I have also noticed small improvements that I've missed-such as getting into a pair of dress pants this morning that I haven't worn in over a year-they fit! I also find my rings are sliding around a little on my fingers. I also tried a necklace on and didn't feel like I was being chocked to death-you know since that's such a "in look". HA! But these are all things that are to be celebrated, it's the little things that make this journey exciting!

Weight loss: -.2 Total loss: -14.2 pounds and 6 inches.
