Weight Loss Reality Check: Facing negative feedback when you're making positive changes

4/27/2021

I had a pity party on Sunday morning. 
No, it was really a mental temper tantrum. Full on meltdown like a toddler.
I try to keep things positive. Acknowledge the challenges, embrace the learning opportunities, and practice patience (oof, that one is hard.)
But some days, it's just hard and your inner bitch voice and whiny baby personality want to come out and play. Together, these two parts of my personality combine to make an effective bully. 
As part of a new YouTube series I'm putting together—Weight Loss Reality Check—I wanted to share the details of how I allow the scale to still push me around even after four years of facing it down. 
Sharing this journey isn't always about the successes and feeling fabulous. It's not honest and it's not who I am. I have always tried to keep it real and discuss what challenges me with the hopes that it will help others understand this is a process--and a long-term one at that. If it were fast and easy, no one would have a weight problem.
So, here's this week's reality check. Hope you enjoy!
