*Sigh* Had a horrible week... Don't know what came over me.
As of Monday I had broken into a new bracket on my scale. I was feeling proud! So what did I do? Eat, and eat, and eat.. Why? Why do that to myself? So silly. I knew what I was doing wasn't helping.
This morning I finally stepped back on the scale... I am no longer in my new bracket. *sigh*
It's okay. I can get back there. I keep reminding myself that this is a normal minor setback that we all do from time to time. I'm bummed that I weigh more now than when I weighed into my bets but am still proud of me. I am still down from where I started 6 months ago. My towel still can wrap around me, I can still wear my "smaller jeans" it's okay. The reality is, this is how weight loss goes. It's not a constant decrease in weight. It fluctuates.
I won't give up, I will continue to learn how to make better choices, and live a healthier life. I love me and I deserve all of this, as do you. It's okay if we slip up from time to time.

I'm not quitting!
Don't quit!
