“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.”
― Norman Vincent Peale

I was visualizing a number on the scale that I wanted to see this morning. I started last night, kept it throughout the night and woke up with it. As I got on the scale, I was disappointed to not see 177. I was thinking I was 178.0 yesterday so when I saw 178.2, I almost was going to wait until tomorrow to weigh in, knowing I had a decent amount of salt yesterday but had done a really good job. I was completely whining in my head for a moment.

Then I realized I was 179.0 yesterday. I had lost 0.8, not gained.

Lesson: Visualizing is great but remember where you started from and know where you want to go. ;)

Happy Saturday buddies...have a kickass day!

I agree w you all. I am visualizing wearing my fav board shorts again by this Spring. That is where I started and want to go. (To the beach, to the lake, etc.)
