Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / December 2007sticking it out
I was just thinking that the real success is not actually the gains or losses but the learning, and the getting better at one's lifestyle as time goes by, Lee I totally agree. Moving the scale is very easy... but to learn a lifestyle that teaches you to be healthy, and not white knuckle it all the time (resulting in yo yo dieting) us the true victory.

I have to remember that something like having a gain 2 weeks in a row doesn't negate all the weeks of losses. It's about the big picture and how far we've come and where we need to be. I amaze myself at how negative I can initially be at a small weekly gain and forget all the pounds lost prior to that. It's silly, actually. So, remember the BIG PICTURE! Thanks for the reminder!
