Winning

Options
For me, losing is winning. Therefore...

The more hunger pangs I endure, the more I win.

The more I go to bed hungry, the more I win.

The more times I go to the gym, the more I win.

The more sweat-soaked my shirts are from workouts, the more I win.

The more weight I lift, the more I lift it, the more I win.

The more time I add to my workouts, even seconds, the more I win.

The more distance I add to my workouts, even tenths of miles, the more I win.

The more I make my muscles burn, the more I win.

The more I pass up the cake and donuts in the office, the more I win.

The more I refuse to eat the brownies and cookies at home, the more I win.

The more holes I have to make in my belt, the more I win.

The more clothes I shrink out of, the more I win.

The more people tell me I look like I'm losing weight, the more I win.

The more I don't cheat on my nutrition, the more I win.

The more the scales go down, even if only by tenths, the more I win.

The more veins I see being pushed out by new muscle, the more I win.

The more I deny myself, the more I win.

The more I push myself, the more I win.

The more I refuse to fail, the more I win.

The more I persist, the more I persevere, the more I win.

I will win. I am winning. I have won.

    I needed to read this today, while I am working remotely from a tea café with a ton of yummy looking baked goods. I came to MFP to log my lunchtime banana and read your post. I have more motivation to deny myself the baked goods now. THANKS!

    Great motivation! Sometimes we forget the temporary inconvenience pays off overall.
