Non Scale Victories

[JoanieK]

Hi- I started a thread like this last time I did LT. Basically apart from the scale we have non-scale victories and these can get us through low loss weeks or tough days. Perhaps we can share them here??

Anything goes like doing up a zipper, getting hit on, resisting temptation, getting compliments etc

I'll start with my NSV is getting to day 5- I've been 100% and can already see the difference!

Nsv for me would be continuing to have patience with my toddler when he's up for hours during the night while I'm cold and weak.

Nsv fishing out my pre- pregnancy clothes and them almost fitting

You'll be much closer than you were if you weren't doing this plan and you will get there!! Even if this forum has to drag you kicking and screaming!

It certainly is.. However I believe its a mental one more so than physical to be honest... I genuinely had to boot the self loathing voice out the door first and accept my flaws before I knew I was ready to make my changes... My whole life has greatly improved due to my new way of viewing life... I've been positive for two years now... It's not going anywhere...

Taking one goal on step at a time..

Debts are now gone... Getting my body back is now.. Quit smoking will be next and thats it... Done :-D

Oh diet I think is 85% mental totally, and it's amazing the way you can reset your life when taking control!
