I'm in you guys. I found Mayweather's post inspiring and simply captured everything I've ever felt about my life and opportunities. My most recent disappointment was not going to the Leaver's May Ball before I left Sixth Form because I felt too fat to be in a nice dress
I know I don't really fit into your category of just starting or struggling but I definitely would like to be alongside you all in our united goal of being 100% until NYE. I'd love to be the slimmest I've ever been just to know! Just to know what it would be like!
Good luck everyone and let's stick it out together xx
Edit: Oh, uh...I didn't put what weight I wanted to beI want to lose at least 20lbs xx
Fairplay Evy!!
just 20 weeks of sheer and total and utter commitment. i just ordered photos of people/events from facebook that im sticking on my bedroom wall. the Leavers Ball - you know we all been there for one event or another!
Massive congrats!!! You've already lost 50% of what you wanted to lose, i.e. that's no accident. So you know you can do it. From losing and regaining, this is the first time around that as well as get diet/exercise/sleep/water,etc... all right, i also know i have to focus on my mind. Im a big believer that once you lose a certain amount of weight, you sometimes plateau because subconciously you think you ARE a certain weight, and cant actually visualise yourself any lighter. Lets all really go through each week imagining that 2/3 lb weight loss. And if we dont lose anything, rather than get down about it, we double the physical effort we put into exercise the following week. None of us are morbidly obese to the extent that being 100% for 20 weeks won't fundamentally change how we look and feel about ourselves.
What we do now over the next 20 weeks, is actively shaping how we're going to feel about ourselves and our lives on New Years eve. everything.
For 20 weeks, anytime you feel tired/hungry, etc...just think of that person on new years eve, and how the next decision you make will either help them or harm them. everytime you avoid temptation, you're increasing the "muscle" that you need to say no. every time you head out for a walk even though you're tired from work/didnt sleep, you're telling your body that you refuse to give up. I actually cant WAIT for autumn when it's raining and I go straight out into it! I cannot be stopped! ...well, maybe snow..
lets do it!
