Need a Pep Talk...

[GeauxForIt 659]

Had my follow up with my surgeon today and I've only lost 11lbs since my last appointment. I was hoping for closer to 20!!

Trying to focus on how far I've come (63lbs lost!) and not how far I still have to go.

BLAH.

Thanks!! I'm trying to give myself credit for how far I've come instead of focusing on how far I still have to go, but I'm notoriously hard on myself...

This a marathon...not a sprint...this is a marathon...not a sprint...this is a marathon...

You made it to onederland and you lost weight. I think that is reason enough to Celebrate.

It's difficult for us to not be so hard on ourselves. But when you start feeling that way, just think of how far you have come. How successful you would be at this point without the surgery. And how much better you feel today.

And if that doesn't perk up your mood, just look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are one sexy beast :-)

Slow and steady is the race. Hang in there.

You are looking amazing. Those pounds are gone forever. Do something to pamper yourself and change up your workout. You can do this!

Holy crap! Your pics are my inspiration for the day. How pretty and happy you look!!! Yay, you!

I bet you're so relieved to be that far along in the "marathon". Now, go get a bright color of nail polish and paint your toenails with it just because YOU CAN NOW!
