Can you see the big picture
There are a lot of comments now. Fifty pounds is hard to miss, especially if you don't see someone every day. So, people will comment and complement and question. They applaud and congratulate. Its humbling to have to learn how to graciously accept this, to acknowledge the sincerity of the statement. But sometimes, it's really hard to accept it. Maybe because its been a frustrating week with the scale or the workouts. Maybe because it's the 10th time that day something has been said about it. Or maybe it's because sometimes its hard to see the big picture through the big picture. I've lost 50 pounds so far this year. 50. And while yes, I am extremely proud of that, I also know how far in still have to go. And sometimes, in my head that overshadows my victories. I'm working on seeing both ends of the picture, I promise I am.
