Patience is a virtue

Poise in the face of frustration

Whether waiting to see a change on the scale, dealing with your coworkers, or diligently putting in work and feeling unappreciated, losing your patience is very easy to do. By exercising patience with all people, you are allowing them to become better and to learn on their own through gentle guidance. One healthy byproduct of self control in the face of frustration is that it usually leads to encouragement and enhancement of your relationships. Happy families and friendships thrive on patience and learning. It may take time to learn, but the results are well worth it!

I know Sparkpeople are right.

I need patience at the moment. having had a good day with my back yesterday this morning it is bad again so I am not doing a work out. But I have (very gently) cleaned the oven (very very gently!) I feel I am in control of my food at the moment - which is good. Two weeks to go until I go to Paul McKenna's day. Hopefully by then I will be fitter and able to act on the extra motivation I will get from that.

I feel down - but not out.
