I climbed a mountain and saw clearly!

On Wednesday, I went for my weekly weigh in at Weight Watchers. I knew according to my scale at home that I most likely would have a slight gain. I told myself I would still weigh in no matter what, I would not hide, shrink or skip a meeting. After all I had lost 14 lbs the previous three weeks. I knew I had been following the Weight Watchers program very well, ( not perfectly but darn close) and exercising faithfully. SO, if I had a slight gain I would not allow myself to feel discouragement, the scale would not dictate my mood. Well, I gained .4 lbs. BUT I knew the minute I weighed in, transformation had begun to take place from the inside out. I felt GREAT and did not feel ashamed, I had to pinch myself as this was a first for me. I was on Cloud 9 when I left because I felt like I had conquered a giant. ALWAYS, a gain previously would have meant discouragement, bingeing and then a "what's the use" attitude!! NOT this time, my self worth is coming from deep inside of me and not the scale. I climbed a mountain on Wednesday, I could see clearly everywhere, it was my first taste of freedom!
