check your sugarcoat at the door

week 1

Super sweet doctor asked me to write one complimentary thing about myself every day.

I’m struggling with this.

But I pass my wall calendar every day with the big green numbers logging the minutes spent on the treadmill and I think… that? Is success. And determination. And consistency. (And an eight pound loss in one month, baby!)

So instead of daily compliments, I’m challenging myself on weekly resolutions. Something to stick to for a seven day period each week.

…I may need a bigger calendar…

As of today, Friday, I will not write anything negative – here, by e-mail, or private journal – no matter how bad my day is. I’ll dig for and find the good in everything that happens and the complaints will subside. I’m sure they’ll rattle about furiously but therein lies the challenge.
