I am so proud of ALL of you!
And you should be very proud of yourselves!
Remember it is not about the number on the scale! It is about the everyday changes you are making one day, one change, one choice at a time! So take pride in even the smallest change you have made to better your health!
When I first started my journey, I had a friend who had started a few months before me. So she had shared her "numbers" with me. When I had completed my first week I expected the same number she had had…..That didn't happen! You know why? Because we are each different, our bodies, our minds, the way we react to the new lifestyle. That's what makes each of us so special! So unique! Why did I expect the same…Because we started at almost the same weight, we are built the same, for the most part anyway. But you know what happened, I lost a really good amount my first week, but I didn't let myself feel the pride because I was so hung up on the fact it was less then her first week…Pretty dumb right?
I have since learned it is so NOT about that number on the scale! You know how I asked you to take before pics and measurements? Well this is why! As I said we started at almost the same weight and her "numbers" were bigger…but guess what…my inches were more! And before I knew it I was seeing myself as being the same size as her, wearing the same size clothes, even though she weighed less then me! So don't compare friends, just rejoice in YOUR success! Celebrate you!
So please no matter what that number on the scale today…Take pride in what you have achieved, the changes you implemented and the closer you are to those goals! At week 4 we will re do those measurements and you will be amazed at the inches you have lost!
For now if you want please share your successes and encourage each other!
I can't wait to hear from all of you!
