So now outta my post party funk and resolving to carry on these are my promises to myself
To take my multivitamins, B Vitamins and fish oils
To drink more water
To walk at least 30 minutes each day
To do my little set of exercises to tone up
To accept invitations involving food and deal with them positively
To love me........
I just want to say congratulations on staying strong.... it is a massive achievement!!!
I was like you.... When i started this (About 10 months ago!)
I thought i'd start this diet(Well lipotrim but you know what i mean) like many otheres before it!!! These diets give amazing results and once you settle into them they are easier t stick to as you start seeing results....
I just want to say it is SO worth it........ Please keep at it.... there's been time when i have literally cried as i've felt it will never end....cried as to how heavy i let myself get.....cried at how much i hated pics of myself...... Tried to convince myself that i was happy when i was bigger I WAS NOT.........
I just wanted to say use this time..... I scared myself into it at first.... Read about how obesity/bingeing/excessive drinking affects your health..... investigate how you want to eat when your at goal.....these things along with my family hostories made me realise what I was doing to my body!!! I dont want to die early because I cant control my eating!!!!
Sorry is this a grim post its not meant to be..... I just wanted you to know your not on your own..... It feels forever away and it did to me too.... I've fell off the wagon endless times and had endless 'days/weekends off' but i will not give in.... and as long as you dont give in you'll get there......
Be Positive..... your already about 1 sixth of your way there..... always look at what you have achieved.... not look at what you still have to do....
I went for some CBT when I started and the single most helpful thing she asked me to do....was grab a pad and write every single postive thing you do.... (I still do this now!!) SO include everything..... weight related and not related..... Lost first stone, had to buy smaller trousers, didnt really want to go out for a walk....ut made myself go, had to put new hole in belt, fell off the wagon but got straight back on the day after, went out and just had a coffee, refused a slice of cake etc......
Soon you will have a massive list..... list everything no matter how small...... And when your feeling crap about yourself or you want to binge.... Get out the list and realise just how NOT CRAP you are and how far you already have come..... I suffer with self esteem issues too and this really helped me..... As you get smaller i guarentee you will feel better about yourself as you become fitter and healthier....... I promise you that!!!! You may still have issues (I do....) but they're nothing like they were!!!!!
Good luck to you!!!!! You CAN do this.....
