Motivation needed!!
I lost 42lbs over ten months and reached my goal weight in June 2005.
Since then around a stone has crept back on! I'm finding it hard to get my willpower going this time, but would rather have 14lbs to loose instead of 42lbs again. Any motivation tips greatly received! Bridget |

Motivation needed!!
Bridget -
Welcome to the group. Congrats on your loss. It's a tremendous achievement. But if you don't come to grips with the fact that this is going to be a "life long journey", then you are going to continue to yo-yo up and down. I am glad however that you've decided to do something about it now rather than later. I wish you success, but you really need to think about the reasons you lost weight the first time and why you want to keep it off - those reasons, if you truly believe them, will give you the motivation you desire. It's in you - you just have to want it. Eddie Weight June05-359.0lbs Current Weight-278.6lbs Loss to date=80.4lbs Goal Weight-180.0lbs "Sunseeker" wrote in message oups.com...

Only place to nail it to the wall is opposite the bathroom door, so that's just what I see every morning when I come out of there! Sure helps to keep ME on points and exercising! -- Kate XXXXXX R.C.T.Q Madame Chef des Trolls Lady Catherine, Wardrobe Mistress of the Chocolate Buttons http://www.katedicey.co.uk Click on Kate's Pages and explore! |

you know you did it before, and you know you don't want to keep gaining, go
through that closet and try on ALL of your clothes, get rid of everything that is too big, then look at what is too small and remember how you liked wearing those clothes and just start and DO IT NOW!!! welcome and good luck, Lee Sunseeker wrote in message oups.com...

Go to a store and carry around a couple bags of flour or sugar as a reminder of what you lost and how heavy it feels to walk around like that. Ralph |
