As much as you may want to "be perfect" with your weight loss or recovery plan, it's not possible. But that's good news. Who wants to be perfect all the time? That's too much pressure. With any change that you make in your life, there will be ups and downs. You'll feel really motivated one day, and then "blow it" the next. The perfectionist in you might be very critical about that most recent "I blew it" episode. Try changing the way you think about it – it's a learning opportunity. What triggered it? How did you handle it? What could you have done differently? How can you be prepared for a similar situation in the future? Learn from your challenges and renew your commitment to your weight loss or recovery plan. It's also important to acknowledge your successes. Many times, successes get overlooked because you're too focused on your "failures." Take a moment and review your week, and take note of the successes you had. Notice them now at a deeper level. Acknowledge the steps you took this week to make positive changes in your life. Take another successful step today, and keep learning from any challenges you may encounter!
