Encouraging Words From Mary

Well, Mary left such encouraging words I cut them and pasted them from her comment. I hope you don't mind Mary!

Just to let you know I am a total sweets addict!!!!!!! I do this from time to time! It doesn't discourage me too much, but does disappoint me some!

Once again, thanks Mary. Oh, and Dee, your on! 1 week challenge, we'll see who lost the most this week, we'll both weigh in Thurs! Love ya!!!

Here's Mary's Comment:

I've been sending Dee encouraging messages over facebook and I encourage you, too. Don't let the little set backs put you in a downward tailspin. Even if you did eat all the s'mores this week, you also exercised and that's a BIG accomplishment. Whether you believe it or not, you will eventually see the results of that accomplishment.

Now, I have to share a confession. Since January 2008, I've lost 32 pounds. But over the past month, I've been feeding my "depression" and haven't been doing too well. So far, I've managed to maintain but this past week has been pretty tough and I'm sure when I weigh on Monday, I'm going to find that I've gained a few pounds.

The point is, you shouldn't take any set backs as complete failures and revert back to the old lifestyle. Just pick up where you left off and continue on to the better you that you've been working toward. I'm shaking off this moody "whoa is me" attitude and getting back into the "what's good for me" state of mind.

Thanks :)
