Persevere.
Daily Inspiration for February 4, 2011
Persevere.
Some days you wake up feeling tired or distracted. You just don't have the time or energy to follow your WLS regimen at that moment. So, you skip breakfast, or eat that slice of cold pizza that you righteously avoided the night before. Days of discouragement shouldn't surprise you. They are reminders that food will always be complicated -- either a comfort or a distraction.
The key to real change is perseverance. When you take a misstep, for whatever reason, know that you will continue to persevere in your WLS recovery. You will start over at the next meal--you will overcome the temptation next time. That is how you'll succeed. Being perfect just isn't going to happen. So persevere.
Action for the day: No matter where you are in your recovery, today you will persevere. Start over every time you stray from your plan. Start over as often as necessary.

I had a WW leader one time that taught me that learning from our mistakes was also important. When we eat poorly at a restaurant for example we can look back and decide where we went wrong. Plan ahead for the next time you go there. I actually look at my diet records and look for problems. Often I can get a food out of my house or plan ahead for a situation.
Good post...thanks,
Just me
