I personally find it really hard especially on a day like today when it is cold and cloudy!!

do you have any tips of how i can be motivated?

p.s i know i posted this in the off topic section but though it would be better here!

* Set yourself free*

All i have to do is walk to the mailbox and I am sweating like crazy, flies are all around me and I just feel out of breath cause the air is so thick and moist.

The person that suffers the most isnt me, but my son, I feel like because of the weather and my lack of wanting to go outside that I dont take him for walks etc. Maybe once or twice a week....and we dont have a backyard, only a pool. So he has no play area outside.

I think once I feel more confident and fitter in myself I wouldnt mind...but looking like a sweating hog outside to me is unattractive and I feel out of my comfort zone.

You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

You see things; and you say "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"

You've got to say, I think that if I keep working at this and want it badly enough I can have it. It's called perseverance.

When it's cold and miserable out what I really want is cheese on toast or a nice big piece of lasagne

Ohh I have eaten healthier since living up here, and I love all the tropical fruit I can get my hands on up here...but I live next to a creek and its bugs galore...I come back with bites all over me. Plus due to carrying this weight I find it hard to exercise without getting really bad sharp aches through my bones in my legs...and I also suffer really bad fluid retention so the heat makes this unbearable.

Also I dont like my arms and legs...so I am walking around in the heat with long sleeve tops on and pants...its like my own personal sauna....if I could walk around with a singlet top on and shorts I wouldnt be bothered by it.

LOL I look like an outsider...all pale and in winter clothes in the sweltering heat....and I see size 8 girls running around in lil shorts and sleeveless tops or just a bikini top without a drop of sweat on their forehead...THAT will be me one day...I hope  

I dont like being couped up inside....I used to be the size 10 girl down at the beach everyday in Adelaide..all tan and toned...its depressing.

Nope, winter is definately the dieting season for me. I don't want icecream or lollies as much and I find it a lot easier to avoid social occasions that involve food because there just seems to be less of them in winter lol.
