southernsoul 773 Posted December 20, 2013 I just read this great article about comparing ourselves to others & how damaging it can be. As we are so immersed in weight loss, it is unbelievably tempting (and almost impossible to avoid!) to compare our progress with that of others. I try really hard to stay mindful of making comparisons, but it's definitely a hard thing to do & I'm not always very successful. I need to stick this article up somewhere so I see it often! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/daniela-tempesta-lcsw/comparing-yourself_b_4441288.html?utm_hp_ref=gps-for-the-soul&ir=GPS%20for%20the%20Soul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted December 20, 2013 I try not to even click on links that look like they are inviting comparisons. October sleevers check in here! How much did you lose the first three months? Etc. I even refuse to have a ticker or generally tell people how much I've lost since surgery. Comparisons set no one up for success IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
