Don't forget about the baby steps!

Monday, June 25, 2012

I've been reflecting.

Mainly about how I got from where I was 10 months ago to where I am now. And I needed to remind myself that it was lots and lots of very small steps!

Ten minutes of exercise each day, saying no to the delightful little snacks that seem to be everywhere, being diligent with tracking food, joining challenges, blogging, being courageous.

Before and after pictures may be dramatic and inspiring, but don't forget the little steps!! That's what gets us there safely, and, hopefully, permanently!

    Such a crucial thing that it becomes so easier to forget. I suspect this will have to be a lifelong mantra for me as I start to run at everything before I can walk: remember the baby steps!

    You are so right. I need to remember that every day. I've lost 60 lbs. and have 40 to go. The wind has gone out my sails and I've been going up and down the same three pounds for along time now, Thank you for reminding me I need to get back to the basics. emoticon
