A month to love yourself! We aren't perfect and we have goals we want to meet but for this month I challenge you to work hard but when you look in the mirror and start to think those thoughts like "I hate my jiggly butt" or "my legs are so gross" or any negative thoughts about your body, try to cut that thought off and say something nice about yourself. Even if all you can muster is something like your toenails look great with that pedicure. It just might take a little stress out of your life and if stress can make it harder to lose weight, then you might just see some extra weight come off as a bonus. :flowerforyou:

    I find myself looking in a mirror and thinking oh god that cottage cheese... but it looks better than last month.. or that belly... but it used to be much larger...

    and in the end I don't feel that bad about it because I know it's getting there

    I was just having this issue yesterday. I forget sometimes that "Body and soul, I am marvelously made! Psalm 139:14" Thanks for the reminder! I should post my affirmative words on my mirror so they're there when negative thoughts come. I plan to love myself like crazy this February! <3
