Victory...deep within

I think I'm getting it....a little teeny tiny step at a time. :) I showed another 2 lb loss this week, but more than that, I'm starting, just STARTING to finally get it in my heart what I've known in my head for so long. This is a true lifestyle change. And I'm making life long choices. And I don't have to DEPRIVE myself of things I love, just make BETTER CHOICES!! ;)

Laurie told me that it's almost like a grieving process we have to go through....grieving the loss, whether good or bad, of the lifestyle I used to live. Not really giving a rip and paying for it with my health. Now, as I fight this battle within myself of good vs. not so good, I'm finding small victories that I can absolutely celebrate and accept and move on to the next one!!

I'm going to a yummy restaurant tomorrow night and we're having a fried chicken dinner. Am I going to pass on it?? NO WAY! But I'll make better choices and have very small portions and savor EVERY.SINGLE.BITE.

Find your victories in each day, rejoice in them, thank God for leading you through them, and make good choices!

Love and Blessings!
Kim

I don't see much change on my scale but my pants are starting to feel a little looser. I am not giving up this time. Keep up the good work.
