Looking at your listing of blog posts led me to this particular post that has really resonated with me today. I've just started back on WeightWatchers...actually I just resigned with them...but after 5 days, I STILL haven't been able to get started on the program. Too much "stuff" in my head. This post, however, has addressed exactly how I'm feeling today...a FAILURE, yet again! Thank you for reminding me that "failure" is not the way to look at this, and that the "punishment approach" accomplishes nothing but self-defeat.

I am trying to learn from each "failure" along this path, and love myself whether I am being successful that day or not.
