Otherwise ... I will do the best I can each day.
I - If only for today! - will not beat myself up if I fall short of that one goal.
To do the best I can each day.
That is all any of us can do!
And, that is good enough!

MY therapist keeps telling me I a worth more than a number on the scale and intellectually I get this but I don't feel it. I wish I could sell myself on this idea, even a little. My problem is that it feels like there is a dead zone in me, where nothing can penetrate or spark that real belief in me that it will be okay. I can't buy into these mental tricks anymore.....I just don't accept my body or being and ill take the crap life with the disorder over the self-loathing that comes from seeing my body change.
