Starling Fitness: Daily writings on Fitness, Diet, and Health

I found this funny card on Fit Villains the other day.

It reads:

Losing weight is hard…

And the last time I checked, calling someone “fat” does not make it any easier.

It’s so true, but the person who keeps berating me is within my own head. As the saying goes:

It is hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head.

-Sally Kempton

I just need to remind myself constantly that calling myself “fat” OBVIOUSLY doesn’t help. If it did, I would be stick thin after thirty years of this abuse. Every time I catch me berating myself, I need to stop it and remember this.
