DailyInspiration - Make peace with your limitations

Make peace with your limitations.

 

Because WLS is a life-time journey, your post-op life will include both extreme highs and extreme lows, and there will be times when making a healthy choice is very hard.

 

You can look back and review how you've handled challenging situations in the past to get clues about how you will handle them in the future. Identify your weak areas, so that you will know what kind of support you'll need. It's okay to have limitations. Just make a plan for how you will handle them.

 

Action for the day: In your journal, explore how you've handled extreme times in the past. Make a list of your areas of vulnerability. Think about how you can get support so that your limitations don't become major setbacks.

Yet ANOTHER great message! I believe this one has GREAT importance for us all. Overcoming lows takes tremendous work but is worth it. Getting to the highs is just as much work but the results are wonderful. Thanks!

For me...this one is definately hitting home.  But, not only overcoming them, but IDENTIFYING them takes alot of work as well.  Enjoy your day!
