Perfection

I have not attained it. Nor will I ever.

So I’ve given up trying. To be perfect, that is.

But that doesn’t mean I’ve given up on my goal. I am still going to lose this weight. I am still going to check in regularly. I’m just not perfect.

I did better this week – namely with keeping a food journal very consistently and sticking with a balanced plan. But I didn’t lose.

And that’s OKAY.

    Sarah, I’m with you. Yes, we are not perfect, but that is ok. I have been taking it one day at a time. Don’t be discouraged about no loss this week. I was watching the biggest loser the other day and some of them actually gained with the strict regiment that they are on. I have been praying daily and each day if I leave food on my plate or make a positive food choice. I am rejoicing in the small victories. I am praying for you too in this journey. Blessings.

    Sarah…I love your honesty with it all. It isn’t easy. I’ve been doing WW since April and there are days were I really could care less. I still stick to it because I have other motivations (like money). I don’t pay to gain weight. But I want to go and eat the biggest plate of deep fried calamari and a huge bowl of clam chowder. That totally blows the whole point thing…LOL

    Be strong…You are more then the 15 pounds….You are an amazing Mom and Wife, from what I can see a great friend and a wonderful writer.

    So as I sit here and eat a bowl of summer squash for ZERO points….let me tell you that you are also and inspiration. We will all be perfect someday. When we go home to the Lord until then we will just BE.

    One day at a time!! Gotta say it…I do totally love you.
