    Just for today: I will reread and reapply my original "Just For Today" post. I have noticed some definate "tomorrow" thoughts creeping up on me (I think it started when I watched Annie the other day and heard her singing, "I love ya, Tomorrow")

    Just for today: I will look at the 4 lbs I've lost instead of the 21 lbs to go!

    Just for Today: I will be patient and understanding. It takes a lot more time and effort to turn the ship around than it does to conitnue on the same course.

    Just for today, I will revel in the fact that I put on a pair of size 8 jeans.

    Oh who am I kidding? I'm going to revel in that forever! :drinker:

    Just for today I am going to remind myself that just because I put on a size 8 doesn't mean I can reward myself with food.

    Just for today, I am going to get my butt outside and exercise by running around with my children and not worry about the mud and the snow.

    I love this thread, mostly because I am all about the tomorrow. I love that I can have new starts and the next day can be better, but I cannot continue having a new start every other day!

    Just for today I am going to listen to my body and not eat just because there is temptation!

    so true and the best rewards usually come from the hardest work.

    Just for today I will get out and move instead of staying in and excuse-ing.

    For too long I've allowed my back to be an excuse. Sometimes, it's really sore and I just have to stop but other days I'm just afraid to get started because it MIGHT hurt after. Well, heck. Isn't that WHY I have the meds? IN CASE it hurts? The hardest step is the first but since I'm kind of still reeling from yesterdays exercise I think I want to ride that momentum as far as it will take me. And each day that I ride it I add to it and can (hopefully) go another day.

    I'm walking around with sore knees and ankles and have been doing the same. I often wonder am I not doing what I could and just hiding behind my joints.

    WOW! Way to go! Keep enjoying those size 8's. I judge my weight loss more by the size of my clothes than by the scale!!

    Just for Today: I will remember that life is a special occasion!

    I keep trying to find my motivation outside myself: I will lose weight before a reunion, or I will lose weight before a family party. This morning, as I was contemplating a birthday party that I have to go to, I was thinking about the reasons I didn't want to go. The biggest:wink: reason was that I didn't want to see people and have them see how much weight I've gained over the last year. Then it hit me that the people I was most worried about were people that I haven't seen in a few years and whose opinions really don't matter to me anyway. The people who I care about see me everyday and love me. I want to be thin and healthy, not to please someone that I don't see on a regular bases, but so that I can be my best and give my best to the ones that I love.

    Just For Today: I will put on my two piece and hit the indoor gym pool and not compare myself to anyone else.
