Laugh it off
Well, I think I have a veggie buddy who is not here at Buddyslim but we are going to attempt to do this support system online. What a concept!
The whole weight thing use to be such a taboo subject for me, but with tools I have always felt like I would eventually get there, ya know. This journey has been a long one and I am always amazed at those who just seem to get it done. There are so many factors that contribute to the journey. For me, the biggest thing I have realized in the last several weeks, is that it is a much better, more enjoyable journey if you can take the skills and knowledge and not take the criticism and personalities too too personally.
I really think it is so much better to laugh at ourselves then to beat ourselves up over the little and big indulgences. See where things went screwy and keep going. LAUGH. It might be the best medicine. It was for me today. Me plus milk products equal a big balloon, now how funny is that when I know it is mostly just a lot of bloatedness. Back at it this week. More dedicated workouts and a proper diet. I also want to search out some quick and interesting vegetarian recipes. So here I go….laughing my way all the way to work 
………
Have a great week everyone. *hugs*
Good luck! You have a good week, too!
Laughing and/or being empathic and patient with yourself. Either way, agree that shifting focus away from negativity is a key ingredient here.
P.S. Re exercise, I do yoga, walk or elliptical, and abs and light weights, and some dance stretches. Glad to hear that you are liking yoga! It took me awhile to get to this point, when I actually can’t wait for the next class.
Laughter is where its at! Great to see you having fun with yourself lady.
I’ve been way WAY too serious lately. Must get back to the lighter side of things.
Hugggggggggs,
