I am the most impatient person I know, I want what I want
when I want it…which is usually right now. Patience is a virtue that I have not
yet mastered but desperately need to. I have to remember that as long as I
continue to do my part, God will do his, and my weight will come off. In the
past, I would starve myself, fast, purge after a binge, or keep my calories so
unrealistically low that 10 lbs would fly off in the first week. I felt
ecstatic that I lost 10lbs and it became my goal to lose 10lbs every week. I knew
deep down this was unrealistic but I tried anyway….and failed….and gained
everything back that I lost. I would rush. I would sprint towards the goal line
instead of taking steady steps. So while I wish I had a fantastic weight update
that I dropped 20lbs in a week, I don’t. It’s been only a pound or two, but I’m
okay with that. I am not starving, I am not binging, and I am taking this one
day at a time. What’s wrong with that?
