Mental GPS

Marilyn..

Thank you for the email below and thank you for allowing me to put it on the blog for everyone to read! YOU ARE IN AN INSPIRATION and I am so happy to get to be a part of your weight maintenance journey!

I hope everyone has a great day and I look forward to seeing you at the meetings this week!

Dear Terra~

I had a funny thought at the meeting today. What if we had a mental GPS that would say “recalculating route” when we mess up with being diligent on our weight loss goal? In the past (BWW…..before Weight Watchers) I would mess up and then throw up my hands saying “what’s the use? I’m never going to lose weight!” And of course I would proceed to stuff myself with whatever was available. Now, my mental GPS can acknowledge I made a wrong turn but point me in the right direction immediately.

Also for me I think I found what will encourage me. The more weight I have lost the better I got at yoga. My yoga instructor is quite intense……it’s more like physical therapy. I have been going to his class for 8 years, and noticed how much better I was when I lost 40#. Now I want to get my right leg over my right shoulder, which actually can be done. I am working on getting 2 pounds under goal…….and you know I’ve been struggling since the New Year.

A slip isn’t a fall, and failure is not an option.

See you next week!
