I have to keep reminding myself that weight loss is a process. So it goes with a process, it’s not like any one part of it stands on its own. There are many important moments and turning points, there are many moments of struggle and failure. Yet none of these moments by themselves, define the journey.

Last night I had an argument with someone, and when I went into the food store, I immediately wanted a piece of candy. I literally stopped in the aisle and thought “That’s crazy, I don’t want candy. I don’t want to be aggravated.” That’s an important moment, but it doesn’t define the journey it adds to my understanding. This is what I’m thinking about.
