Special Occasions

Yesterday was Valentine's Day.  A special occasion.  I have been thinking about what constitutes a special occasion.  When there's not a holiday there are birthdays, church functions, baby showers, etc. (the list goes on), and then there are the made up special occasions...I lost 3 pounds, I made it through a very busy week, etc. and I deserve a treat.  Beginning this challenge has made me look at some of the pitfalls in my thinking.  Special occasions happens to be one of them.  So...from now on I will not look for special occasions to find a reason to sabatoge my progress.  Instead, I will look forward to the special occasion when I fit into the next size down, have energy to run around at the park with my kids or not be embarrassed or worried when I get a notification that somebody has tagged a photo of me on facebook...THAT list can go on and on too!  Here's to many special occasions in the future!
