Every step we take carries us along a path, the choices we make decide where that path will lead, the decisions are all yours

I know how you feel, I feel like that ALL the time. I might stuff up a little but I keep getting back up again.

I had a look at your weight loss results and honey, you have been doing so AMAZINGLY well!!!!! and have achieved so much. I am near the weight when you started, and I would love to get down to what you are now.

Is it the diet in particular thats getting you down??

Maybe you could try spoiling yourself to give you a "pick me up" (not with naughty food obviously). Maybe get your nails done or something like that to cheer yourself up and once you are feeling better, perhaps you'll be able to find that dreaded wagon and climb back on. Don't give up, fight back.

Mini goal: Lose 5kg by 28/10/09 - Reward: NEW SWIMMERS + MANICURE (Goal Achieved 5.9kgs lost)

Mini goal: Lose 10kg by 16/12/09 - Reward: NEW CLOTHES + FACIAL

End goal: Lose 15kg by 03/02/10 - Reward: NEW CLOTHES + 1 HOUR MASSAGE

I know it's so hard sometimes, you can't see the changes, you feel like you're wasting your time and money, and you wish that it would all just happen so that you can start feeling better about yourself. I know, I've been there! I was there only 3 months ago! But 3 months down the track I feel like a completely new person. I'm not embarrassed when I see my reflection, I have goals that I've achieved but I know I can achieve a lot more... There are so many things to be happy about.

Every diet takes work. You'll never loose weight by sitting around and hoping that it'll fall off (as I used to do rofl). So what you've got to do is get tough on yourself. You've got everything to look forward to this summer if you get stubborn. Don't give up and remember why you wanted to do this in the first place. If TF doesn't work for you then fine, try something else. But don't just throw the towel in.

NO ONE is destined to be overweight. But the annoying part is that no one can do the hard yards for you. Imagine if you could! If I could loose weight for someone else and find a way to charge them for it I'd be in that business! Imagine the money you'd make... Anyway, I digress.
We're all here for you. If you feel you need someone to rant at or even someone to kick your bum you can PM me anytime. I'm on most of the day as I'm a stay at home mom at the moment and have quite a bit of time on my hands. But please please PLEASE don't give up on yourself. You CAN do it and we're all here to help! *hugs*

The Challenge Challenge - 5.1kg in 4 weeks



The NYE Challenge - 27.5kg in 24 weeks

Pledged 5kg in the Spring Challenge, lost 7kg
Pledged 8kg in the bbbbbb Challenge, lost 5.4kg
Pledged 4kg in the October Challenge, lost 7.2kg

i am still lost but feeling a little better. i think i will keep coming back to read your posts to help me get back on track.

if it were just the diet i was struggling with i might be able to pick myself up a little quicker. It seems the world is weighing me down at the moment and the mountain i'm climbing just keeps getting taller and steeper. i guess it doesnt help that i just got a new implanon implant the other day. It tends to make me go emotionally whacko for a few weeks before it settles in.

i havent updated my chart for a couple of weeks, i am up about 2kg.

i will weigh in tomorrow and start fresh

thanks again

When you look you will discover someone whos gone through ups and downs, and picked themselves back up, and take a look and see how far they have come.

Tomorrow is a new day, theres no point dwelling on the past, hold your head up, look forward and face tomorrow with a smile, things can only get better
