    Great advice! I felt like you slapped me in the face and took me by the shoulders and spoke directly to me. Sometimes that's just what I need!
    I especially could have used this on Sunday when I had been eating great and exercising all week. I exercised and ate well Sunday too, until it was time to go grocery shopping and I wanted to try the new Doritos loco cool ranch taco, got one and a regular taco AND a cheesy gordita crunch... I DID NOT NEED THAT cheesy gordita CRUNCH! I felt gross, ugh, I was kicking myself but I was back to eating awesome and exercising harder yesterday and will be going strong from here on out, maybe, lol

    Thank you! I needed this after spending the better part of the past 4 days "feeding a cold". Time to suck it up and get back on track.

    Actually felt like there was someone in front of me saying this and giving me the kick I may need while reading. Want to say my 'feel sorry for self' state is no more for now.....might need to re-read this in a week though!

    This is so, so true.

    I ate like crap the past 2 days, AND didn't work out at all yesterday, but miraculously didn't gain a pound. However, even if I HAD gained, I would have taken it as all the more motivation to work out today. I walked faster and farther than I have the rest of the days this week and kicked butt on my strength exercises.

    The "next mistake" quickly becomes a way of life, and I'm not going to get trapped in it any more! I'm ready to accept that even if I make 1 mistake every day, that I will do MORE than 1 good thing to make up for it the next day. Thus, they won't really be mistakes at all in the long run!

    Thank you SO much for posting this!

    This mentality is how I lost almost 100lbs and I plan to continue losing :)
    My perfectionism is always what derailed me and led me to get to the 411lbs to start with!

    Follow this guys advice!!! I know I am going to! Thanks for the reminder!
