Successful Week Number Two (a.k.a. Perfectionism Not Allowed)

Another pound of excess weight thrown away this week! After the big loss last week, it's hard to get really excited about losing "just a pound" this week. However, considering how much take-out we had this past week, I'm actually quite happy to have this much loss. We ate out some and ordered in some, but the key was keeping an eye on .... yes, healthy food, healthy portions. Okay, I admit the food wasn't all healthy -- I'm not going to make this "confession time" but suffice it to say I'd like to do better this week.

The bottom line, though, is that I managed to make enough good decisions to have a positive outcome for the week. Seems funny to call a negative number a positive thing. : )  I just want to keep remembering that this is about making good changes, even little ones, and letting them add up to create the results I'm seeking. Perfectionism has failed me over and over again -- has sabotaged me, really -- so I need to avoid allowing my thinking to even begin turning in that direction. Imperfect life is good life!
