Can't I just take a magic pill?

My roommate made me a wonderful salad for dinner tonight. It was a chicken asian salad and super yummy. But, I had a big client lunch today. So, once again, I am partly good and partly bad. It doesn't get me anywhere in my weight loss progression. It is so darn frustrating!

I came home and googled "how to mentally prepare to lose weight every day" because I am still up and down. My search came back with this great idea and I'm going to give it a go. Try positive affirmations -

"Weight loss process is from inside out. The best way is to trick your mind. You have to continuously tell yourself an affirmation like, 'I am doing a great job and I am feeling wondeful from inside because I am losing weight and taking care of my health. I am becoming the person I want to be.'"
