If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it

So I don't know what compelle me to do it, but after I got out of the shower this morning, my scale seemed to be calling my name.  So I gave in and climbed on there.  To my surprise there was a change, not so much in the number (nothing that couldn't be attributed a big poop or something) but in what I saw when I looked down.  I didn't see a number that was saying "Hey fat girl, here's your proof, you're fat!" or anything that was going to keep me down.  Sure, I saw a slightly smaller number but I saw something more, something that said, "just keep going, you're not going to change overnight, but you're feeling great and staying commited, so that's all that matters right?".  I guess you could say that this was my first "AHA!" moment of my journey.  Sure I've had successes, I've met all of my weekly goals to date and we've changed our eating habits drastically, but this was the first time in probably 10 years where I didn't feel like crap for giving into my scale's taunting and in fact, I gave it a good little kick in the ass!  I guess there is something to be said about changing your thinking and having it change your life.

YAY!
