Thread: Less of Me for Summer

Well here I am around 4 months later...
I started a very brief S&S journey last year...did pretty well for two weeks then had some encouragement from my 'concerned' OH to rather go on a reduced calorie diet (watching my portion sizes etc.).
Now he is extremely active and can pretty much eat whatever he wants without gaining weight - me on the other hand are still carrying the post pregnancy weight around with me... I should point out my daughter is 3!

So right enter 2013 weighing even more than what I did last year this time - and time for action. Thought I would have learned my lesson, but nooo I joined WW on 5th Jan...hmmmm is all I can say. I don't have 2 years to lose the weight (seeing as though I lost mainly around a pound a week!) - I think it will be an excellent 'maintenance program' to follow to be honest - and one I may revisit one day when I am at goal. But for now I am too impatient. Plus I don't know how much more my work trousers will stretch before ripping- especially as I stubbornly refuse to buy bigger size trousers (again!)

I have ordered my S&S supply and it should arrive on Tuesday. Tomorrow I will follow a fruit detox day ready to start on Tuesday.
I feel like praying...interesting. Or perhaps I am so desperate - Please I cant go on like this, please let me stick it out and finally lose this weight for once and for all!

I must confess I looked at some motivational photo's before re-ordering supplies and wow the results are still amazing. When I was on the board 4 months ago, there was another newbie - and I have just checked to see that she has reached her goal weight in this time (whilst I was trying all things not working for me). I am so very happy for her and a part of me cant help thinking it could have been me if I stuck to it...BIG SIGH. But she is now my new inspiration - showing it does work - in a mere 3 months from now, my stats can look completely different too....

Lets see shall we...

Best of luck for tomorrow, surround yourself with motivation! If you're on Facebook, 'like' a load of fitness and inspiration pages, or if you have any celebs you wanna "look" like, put a poster or picture up somewhere, I have a picture of Arnie in his prime on my wall... Very inspirational! lol

It's cool your friend got to goal just shows that it can, and will happen if you persevere, wishing you all the luck in the world!

Thank you Aaron I appreciate the tips! Lol Arnie? We have a dvd of him back in his body building days somewhere at home...very funny to watch.
Hope my order arrive early tomorrow morning- Im ready...

Well here I am on day 1 - a later start than I planned- but so far so good.
Feeling great. Maybe Im just so happy to be doing something about my unhappiness?

Had choc shake for brekkies, veg soup for lunch and a choc praline bar now for a snack.
Planning on another shake tonight.

I do have a two day course later this week and am dreading the "refreshments and lunch" that will be provided. As it is not at my normal work location I am already trying to plan how I will sneak in and make my soup...hmm
I do know that this is it...and I refuse to break a good start for some sandwiches!

Well done on your start today
Work meetings are always hard, just try to stay focused and positive, maybe have the bar for lunch instead?

Good luck xxx
