This Sparked Me!

There are days when I feel like I have a person on each shoulder talking in my ear. On one side is the big fat lazy me - on the other is the lean fit person I am striving to be. The lazy fat me never wants to do anything - the lean fit me wants to go to the gym. Shut that fat person up at any cost

Ditto to what everyone else has said. Thank you for reminding me to listen to the good voice.

You are right on! We should be talking postive and not negative
to ourselves!

But maybe...

Whenever you hear that negative self-talk, think "but maybe the opposite is true." Practiced regularly and the self-talk becomes positive.

Forgive yourself

Forgive yourself and talk to your self gently. Negative self talk will only negate all of the positive momentum that you have given yourself.306
