WLS Success-through Powerful Positive Attitudes
Small Bites Daily Inspiration to share! Persevere...
I want to take some lines from a small bites daily inspiration:
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, ore 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 discomfort 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. ** Don’t give up! Keep coming back, share your struggles and successes** Big hugs (((( ))))

Balance is one of the most difficult things to master!!!
Unlike other issues that many people have trouble with:
Alcoholism- Drug Addiction- Smoking.... these things CAN be entirely eliminated (not that it is EASY to do so....)
Food Addictions must be CONTROLLED- but since it is impossible to entirely eliminate the NEED for Food... We must learn balance and as you stated PERSEVERE.
Some days will be better than others...
Get back on track and continue with forward movement in our ongoing weight challenges.
Much like a sailboat does not travel in a straight line... It zigs & zags to catch the prevaling winds and move it forward... without being blown off course. THAT forward movement is controlled by constant adjustments.
So we need to be vigilant - as many have said....
100 pounds gone forever....
maybe not...
Not if we allow ourselves to blown off course...
So.... Persevere in making those constant little adjustments!!!
