You deserve a Pat on the Back!

MFP is a great site where we encourage and support each other! I believe God deserves all the glory and credit for what we have achieved through MFP. However, we sometimes focus so much on the things we do wrong that we forget to give ourselves credit for those bad eating habits we have been able to break. For example, since I was a kid, over 40 years, I've kept candy at my bedside for midnight munching. Also, candy in the car, drove my husband crazy cleaning up candy wrappers after me! I've not craved or purchased candy in over 8 months. It was a tough habit to break and I owe myself a big ole pat on the back for overcoming it!

No matter how far you have to go on this journey, stop and give yourself some credit. What do you deserve a pat on the back for?

I deserve a pat on the back for sticking with this even though I have only lost 10 lbs in 80 days.
