I get discouraged and become impatient during my weight loss journey. Highs and lows... one minute I see subtle differences and the next I am criticizing myself. Talking amongst friends most of us agree we are always our toughest critics. Even if someone notices you have lost weight and tells you how beautiful you are, if you are not happy the with the way you look, their perception is not going to change how you feel about yourself completely. But I do thank all of my sweet friends that do encourage me and lift me up. The support does help in getting over my petty bumps in the road and move on.
As of today I have lost a total of 17 pounds in 6 weeks. Sometimes I get really excited and then I take a look in the mirror and think UG 30 more pounds to go. So I have been reading different articles on patience with loosing weight. Different ways to tackle that unnecessary feeling. Because the facts are... if you want to loose weight the right way it will take TIME and PATIENCE. If patience is something you struggle with here are some suggestions below that might help.
For example one of the suggestions was not to look at it as a 90 pound goal. 8-10 pounds a month is realistic and reasonable. Break it down into smaller increments. Then once you have reached that goal treat yourself with a small reward. A Mani pedi, new shirt from Target, massage from your husband, something you can look forward to.
Another idea for staying motivated which helps improve your patience is logging any changes that you notice in a journal. Track when you are able to do an activity without getting winded anymore, when your thighs don't touch, when you had to go to a smaller hole on a buckle, basically little things that can provide encouragement. That can help with being patient with the slow process of seeing results on the scale.
Take a picture of yourself once a month in the same outfit. This can help you see an actual difference. We see ourselves in the mirror on a daily basis and that makes it hard for us to notice changes.
Decide to start with small, acceptable changes over a period of time.
