Sure, losing lbs helps you feel good about yourself, but there are other measures of success I find almost as gratifying.
1. Fitting into that pair of pants that was such a good price, you think "I'll get into these someday."
2. Saying no to cake and ice cream at a birthday party because you are stronger than that.
3. Going from 0 pushups during your monthly fitness test to 10.
4. Shaving over a minute off your mile run.
5. Bringing turkey burgers to a BBQ so you know you have something healthy to eat.
Those are just some of the measures of success for me. I can't wait to see what else I find out about myself through this journey.
