Bloomin' fandabidoozy Lily.......congratulations. That is amazing, be very proud of yourself It has been a long journey for you and you have stuck with it. We all lose our mojo now and again the important thing is finding it again and boy have you found yours !!
Much love, xxxxxxx
Awww thank you Sue, I have stuck with it, knew the mojo would come back, just had to find that reason and determination again, I know this has been a long journey, coming up to 5 years now in total, but I am over 11.5 stone lighter, which for me is an amazing achievement as I have never had that kind of resolve in my entire life which is what got me to close on 32st in the first place, but this time with the help of SW and lots of support, believe me I have tried every possible diet plan going, some so dangerous for me out of desperation, that I made myself really ill, dangerously ill....but this is the only one I have ever stuck to with so much grit and determination and if it takes me another 5 years to get to my target there is nothing that will stop me. Losing that 6lb this week has really planted the fire back in my belly, I am slowly beginning to see food more as an energy source than a crutch for when I am feeling down, I do have my treats but they are different, in fact completely different to the kind of treats I used to have.....I look forwards to weigh in on a Tuesday now rather than dread it, Mal started bringing me little gifts when I got home from Class, he waits till he has dropped me off and then pops to the local Morrisons and picks up a treat of some kind, last night it was 2 tubs of raspberries, a tub of strawberries and a new bath scrunchie as mine had gone home, it's the simple things in life that really mean so much, it doesn't even matter if I gain I still get my treat as encouragement, now I have been at class for over 4 years and this is something new he has started doing, (about a month or so now), and it was just another boost that I needed.
I am dead proud of myself hun and now my daughter is following my lead and getting back on track, she well and truly lost it after having Albie, but these last few weeks I have managed to get her to stop making excuses and she is finally beginning to get excited about getting back on track, before she got pregnant she had lost 4 of the 6 st she had to lose and was looking amazing, she has since getting pregnant put all of it back on and a little more, but she did brilliantly last time, Albert is coming up to 6 months old and its now time to get on with it, same with my youngest who is very much the smallest of us and has only about 2 st to lose, she isn't quite there with the motivation, but I know as soon as she sees me and her sister both losing again, she will get back on it ...I am so excited for us all, especially as my youngest is starting to think about planning her wedding again...even more incentive for all of us lol
Hope you're keeping well hunni xxx:hug99:xxx
and I am soooooooooooooooo determined to get there.
