Gah! I get so frustrated when I only lose one pound! One measley little pound...I mean come on, I have the ability to gain 3 pounds in one day, why does it take so long to lose only one!
A few years back when I was losing weight for my upcoming wedding, I started measuring weight loss in sticks of butter. Weird right? But think about it, one pound = 4 sticks of butter.....whoa! Thats quite a bit of butter! It was tangible, touchable, comprehendable.
I still use that 3 years later while i'm trying to lose the weight that I gained back after the wedding (never fails right?) So the next time you are feeling down about only losing one pound.....run to your fridge, pick up four sticks of butter, feel the weight of it, and smile. You can do this! You are worth it, and one pound is a stepping stone! Stick with it, you'll get there! (pun intended)
