My Fat Marlbles

[barbapapa]

I've put a profile picture up of my 'Fat Marbles' they help me to keep inspired.

Each Marble represents my weight to loose, the small ones 1lb the large 2lb. Before I started Atkins I'd lost 8lb just from cutting back and then got stuck 'for about 5months'. My fat marbles sit on my window sill and if I'm having a moment of weakness I try and concentrate on the hardwork I've done and that I don't want to put any marbles back in the weight to loose pot. That's the one with the Barbapapa sticker on it represents how I feel when I wear pink - when I reach goal I really want to be pretty in pink with that danger!!! Imagine how I will feel when my weight lost jar has more marbles than the weight to loose

What does everyone else to inspire them? apart from being on this wonderful site of course.

My bikini usually inspires me! Or having a holiday always motivates me! I am off to Madrid in a couple of weeks so am finding inspiration from that! Am praying that I can be good whilst I am away!

Fat marbles, what a lovely idea. I might do something similar. Sounds like it would be quite good motivation for keeping the weight off once you've lost it, too.

I also used to love Barbapapa when I was a nipper. Did you know it is French for candy floss, the literal translation is "dad's beard" - I love that they call it that!
