Why Victory is Scary!

Why victory is scary. Nothing scares me more than victory. So I had a perfect week of eating, exercise. I managed to lose 10lbs in a month. Ok, I did the work, so now what, how do I move forward? What happens when I make a mistake after I have done so well? I think this is my greatest challenge. I have to learn that this journey to become healthy and love myself is not just about the ten pounds I lost. If I ever hope to move forward I must understand that weight-loss is like playing football. You move forward, but some times you earn and penalty and have to move back to the 50 yard line. Some times you win a big game one week and lose the game the next week. I may not have an undefeated record, but I can make sure that I ultimately when the weight-loss war. I know that just as it is a struggle to lose this is preparation for the greater struggle to maintain and that the lessons I learn now and will give me the strength I need while maintaining my weight-loss.
