Weighing In
Lately I've been struggling with my weight a little.
Okay, a lot.
Not that I've gained a bunch of weight, really. But I have gained some, and I'd like to get rid of it.
I've taken to giving myself a little disclaimer, or pep talk, or whatever you call it, after I step on the scale but before I look down at the numbers.
It goes like this:
What I'm about to see is a number.
It's doesn't decide whether I'm ugly or beautiful.
It doesn't give the whole story on my health.
It doesn't tell whether I have willpower or not.
If I don't like the number I can change it. And if I do like the number, I'm capable of keeping it.
It's just a number.
It actually sort of works. Losing weight is easier, or at least more pleasant, if you aren't in a panic every time you weigh yourself.

I've been worried about my weight too :C
I think that once I move in and start cooking for the two of us, it'll be easier to eat healthy and lose weight. We'll figure something out.
Good Philosophy. I like the pep talk.
