To Keep Going....

I sometimes look at individuals on OH and compare my weight loss to others. Yes I know everyone's journey is different but hey I'm human we all have done it. Yes I do see I'm a slow loser but I'm losing so I'm ok with that. I have my bad days and good days with eating food. Sometimes I can feel myself slipping back into my old habits and I quickly snap out of it. Looking at old pictures, my old clothes, and the fact that I can shop for smaller sizes gives me my motivation to keep going.

We all have been there before when we want to give up, I know have on many occasions.  But when I sit in my thinking spot on my sofa, I remember everything have went through to get this surgery so that keeps me going. Also, when I find old clothes I use to wear before surgery.... I'm just amazed that 1. I wore that size, 2. Yes I'm a slow loser but I'm smaller than my pants leg, 3. I'm making this tool work for ME.

So just remember.... you don't have to measure your success with a scale enlightened

You are a success and will be while others fail because they cannot look at the whole picture, just the scale.  This whole weight loss process is so many things and I agree with you about being real about this.  Yes I too look at my clothes now that I buy and I am thrilled to walk in and buy off the rack and no long in plus size clothes.  I am far enough out now that I am maintaining and have learned and still am learning so much.  Remember, it's us turtles that won the race, not the hare.  So for all those folks out there racing to lose the most the quickest, may not be the winners in the end after all.  Take care!  Jane angry
