I'm feeling so good this morning that even if I haven't lost a pound tonight, I won't be disappointed (well okay, maybe a little bit). I took a barre class Monday night, ate very reasonable portions for the last five days, and kicked ass at my workout at the Y this morning. My body feels amazing, and even if I've only shaved off a sixteenth of an inch, it was worth it. Those feelings of schlubbiness and upset are gone today, and in general much less common now, thanks to my eating & exercise as well as my meditation & self-compassion practices. I can't stress enough how important this last piece has been.
So tonight - weigh in! I'm optimistic, and more importantly, I'm loving how I look today.
