It's pretty hard to look at people and not notice size. Just noticing isn't a big deal but if we judge others as better or worse than us just because they are larger or smaller we are focusing on the wrong thing. People come in all shapes and sizes. I read post after post on this BB where people agonize over a pound or two fluctuation, and others who seem to think that true happiness will be found in a size 4 or 6. Most of us will never wear clothes in single digit sizes. Some of us will never loose all the weight we think we should. But the vast majority of us can be fit and healthy.

We need to be patient with our bodies as we exchange poor eating habits for good ones. If we are faithful in feeding our bodies reasonable quantities of nourishing, high quality food, exercising, and drinking plenty of water, our bodies WILL respond. The goal is health, not a number on the scale or a size.

Enjoy the journey!
