Mind games

I hit a goal this week.  I've dropped 30 pounds, or 10% of my starting weight.   In WW,  that was the first big goal.   Old habits die hard!!  I had on a pair of shorts today I could barely get into last fall.   Today,  they buttoned and zipped without sucking in my stomach.   I've noticed my clothes are fitting better,  and I'm feeling pretty good about what I've accomplished and my continuing journey.   And then.... It happens...The mind games. Those voices in my head that say 'yeah,  but you're still in fat girl clothes.   Still plus size.   Still obese.' and I begin to minimize how far I've come.  I know  the mind games are a big part of
 the reason gained the weight back... Plus some.   I've got to find a way to get new tapes going,  and to rewrite the mind games with a positive spin instead of the negative. There's no way to be successful in reaching my goal and staying there if I don't.
