Today’s Thin Thought:   Two steps forward and one step back is still progress

Congratulations on reaching Week 11 in Thin Over 40! This is a pivotal week because we're going to deal with that inevitable occurrencethe backside,  the "one step back."

Setting The Day for Success

While being forty has tremendous advantages, there can be an age-related disadvantagedesperation. Desperation can produce all-or-nothing thinking. To put it another way, you need top guard against the idea that you've got to get this Thin Over 40 thing down pat immediately because time is running out and if it doesn't happen now it's not going to ever happen because you've tried it a dozen times before and nothing's ever worked long-term and you've just about given up hope, but you've put yourself on a limb to try one last time and if you're unable to pull it together to do it this time, well, just forget it.
