From Paige Waehner, your Guide to Exercise
Too often, when it comes to weight loss, we spend a lot of time on what we haven't accomplished - either that, or we downplay what we have accomplished. For example, I had a client who lost a few pounds and, when I tossed confetti in the air while doing my happy dance, she said, "Okay, so I lost a few pounds, but look at how fat I still am?"

Clearly, I need to work on my happy dance moves.

We all do that from time to time, but I'm convinced that celebrating success is much more motivating than punishing yourself for real or imagined failures. To that end, your challenge this week is to celebrate your successes, big or small...every single one. Got out of bed? Success! Put on your workout clothes? Success! You get the point. Whether you celebrate with a happy dance is totally up to you.
