Being compliant with all of the requirements and lifestyle changes that our wls requires of us isn't always an easy thing to accomplish. But we all know it is imperative to our long term success with our weight loss surgery. When life seems to spiral out of control, or things get difficult in life, it can be very hard to focus on tending to our needs. My signature (Just do the next right thing) serves as a personal reminder to me, that when I am feeling overwhelmed, all I have to do is take a step back and just focus on the next action I am taking. Rather than allowing the whole picture to remain a stressful and overwhelming situation or challenge, just take it a step at a time when you need to. Just do the next RIGHT thing. This practice helps me avoid "chasing my tail" or just doing "whatever" seems easier at the time. It allows me to focus on doing things the right way, but doing so bit by bit rather than becoming overwhelmed with the "whole picture".
