Minor success story

MY success story is not "Look I lost 100 pounds!" because I wasn't overweight to begin with.
In fact, I've only lost 8 pounds since October 2011.
But you know what? That doesn't matter to me, because I count my small steps as successes, too.
8 pounds is a victory, and I only have 10 pounds left to lose. Working out consistently 4 to 5 times a week is a victory. Being recovered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating is a major victory! Getting stronger, increasing the weights I lift in my workouts, and pushing harder in my cardio is a victory. Consistently eating healthier and cleaner is a victory. Drinking more water is a victory. Being positive is a victory.
Just TRYING is a victory.
So I'm giving myself a pat on the back for every small thing I've done to improve myself and my life.
Go me! :)
