[Lost Dog]

Thanks, GR.

That reminds me. I thought of something else.

Revel in overcoming obstacles. Don't dwell on failures.

The whole of these two sentences is greater than the sum of the parts.

Conquer a binge, lately? Pass up a free lunch of pizza? Put your son's Halloween bucket down without eating his treats. Leave a cookie on the plate? Good job.

You're like a monk. But, you're not challenged to keep yourself silent, you're challenged to keep losing fat. Conquer a fat loss obstacle and pat yourself on the back.

Go ahead and get frustrated with yourself for screwing up, but if you don't recognize when you've passed a fat loss test, you're missing an opportunity to keep yourself motivated.
