This really inspired me! I have a written plan with the weight I want to be at specific dates and when the dates come up and I fall short I get a little discouraged. I found out a little while back that I have subclinical hypothyroidism and losing weight doesn't come easily. I feel sometimes like I have to work so much harder to get to where I want to get and this quote helped me realize that I just need to be persistent. I just have to take it one day at a time and start focusing on accomplishments other than what the scale says. I really needed this! - 9/25/2012   2:38:37 PM

strive for improvement, not perfection! - 9/24/2012   7:14:41 PM

I'm really glad that is true. With my limited abilities I will never get "perfect" at my yoga poses, but my flexability and balance are improving. - 9/24/2012   2:56:36 PM
