Be patient .......



be patient with yourself....good things come to those who persist!!!
Of all the obstacles to losing weight, impatience is the worst.

We get on the scales and discover we're 10 pounds heavier! OR...
We go shopping and discover we're a size bigger than we thought! OR...
We catch sight of a new bulge in our stomach.

How do we react?

Do we calmly assess the situation?
Do we carefully consider our options?
Do we make plans to solve the problem?
- Avoid junk.
- Eat more 'natural' foods.
- Go easy on the butter and mayo.
- Boil or grill, instead of frying.
- Stop eating packet snacks: eat more fruit.
- Eat little and often.None of These Things Are "Difficult" !!!

"Difficult" is looking for a size 24 bikini.
"Difficult" is understanding a menu when you can't read.
"Difficult" is carrying an extra 145 pounds around on your body, each day
Being cool means FIXING the problem, instead of frothing about it.
Getting impatient, venting about how overweight you are and then trying to lose weight FAST is the exact opposite.
But I'm sure that in your heart-of-hearts, you know this already.
