The Good -
These are a pair of black suit pants. They are a size 38. To be honest, my chubby buns and dunlap belly I am sure stretched it past the 38 inch waist line. There were Sundays when I would pour myself into those pants and uncomfortably suffer through the service.
Now I am a true 34 inch waist! Woot!
Those pants serve as a reminder of where I have come and how much progress I have made. These are just a simple reminder of the good! They remind me of the wins in my health and fitness. The wins in my weight loss journey!
It's amazing reminder!
The Bad -
The skinny pants that I wear to work. Like all of you I have moments of slipping back into poor habits. There are days I skip workouts and feed my face fattening foods. As I slide into those pants and pull that waist line across my belly I am reminded that I need to get back on track.
Just the feel of those pants snuggling up under that little pooch belly that rares it's head when I make excuses for my health and fitness. It reminds me "Jeff you need to refocus".The Ugly -
Simply get rid of these. Just a reminder that sometimes you make terrible clothing choices.
Enough said!
Good thoughts, Jeff. It is quite common for people to make one bad decision (not working out) and let that lead to a day full of bad decisions. It's as if people think once they've taken the wrong road they aren't allowed to turn back!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, it's quite opposite. On my bad days, I journal about them, and then decide to make up for it tomorrow.
