A very small NSV

Today is day 8 of my new diet and exercise plan, and I haven't quit. That sounds ridiculous, but I always quit, always. I lose my steam, my motivation, or I have some sort of emotional eating binge and it all falls apart from there.

Today is day 8, last week I lost 12.6 pounds. I know it won't always be that dramatic, I know a lot of it was water weight, I did just start watching my sodium intake, I know the bigger you are the faster you lose at first, but it's great and I'll take it.

Every day that I don't quit is a NSV.

    Yay you! You're absolutely right - every good day is a victory! But don't be too hard on yourself - a little slip doesn't mean you've lost the war. And just because I've been listening to a lot of positive thinking stuff - you should say "I USED to quit" rather than "I always quit." Put it in the past, where it belongs! Good luck!
