"Forget this" day to motivation

daynation

You ever have a "forget this" day (day you are done and about ready to quit) that turns into a highly motivating day?

I had one of those days yesterday. My scale jumped four pounds, I was tired of counting calories, and was getting tired of all this work....

After I stepped off the scale I put on a pair of jeans that I had not worn in a while (all the rest of the jeans were in the wash). Normally, there is a muffin top. To my surprise, there was no muffin top, and at the same moment my husband came up behind me and said, "You are looking so good. Thank you for doing this for the family."

I suddenly got remodivated, realized how far I came. It is always a balance between being proud about what you have done and fearful of how far you still have to go, but sometimes it is just about enjoying the moment and the battle.

Have you ever gone from discouraged to motivated?

You just had a helluva non-scale victory! Glad you aren't giving up!
